Judge Thapur entered an order today following Monday’s teleconference.  Judge Thapur has decided to place Ms. Robinson’s lawsuit on hold pending a ruling by the JPMDL, provided that ruling is made prior to July 1.  Otherwise, Judge Thapur will rule on the governments’ motions to dismiss on July 29.  Judge Thapur also indicates that he’d be happy to oversee other cases challenging the Third Amendment if the MDL Panel chooses to send them to him.  A copy of Judge Thapur’s order is attached to this e-mail message.15-00109-0045
