Memorandum of Law in Support of North China Pharmaceutical Group Corp.'s Renewed Motion for Judgment as a Matter of Law (Apr. 11, 2013)
ORDER in case 1:05-cv-00453-BMC-JO; terminating (689) Motion for Judgment as a Matter of Law; terminating (691) Motion for Judgment as a Matter of Law in case 1:06-md-01738-BMC-JO. Rule 50(b) provides that a party may file "a" renewed motion for judgment as a matter of law; it does not provide that a party may file three motions for judgment as a matter of law. It is unclear why defendants felt the need to file three motions instead of one motion with their different grounds for relief. The latter two motions are therefore terminated. The court will consider the grounds raised in those motions as part of its determination of motion 688. Defendant is directed not to refile. Ordered by Judge Brian M. Cogan on 4/12/2013.
