A discovery dispute arose as defendants requested more time to respond to contention interrogatories, proposing a delay until the pretrial conference. Plaintiffs opposed the request, emphasizing the need for timely responses to advance case preparation.

The MDL judge granted the defendants an extension but did not allow a delay until the pretrial conference. Instead, the court paused the defendants’ obligation to respond and will reassess the issue at the next discovery conference.
