Defendants In Flint Water Case Say They Are Entitled To A Stay Of Discovery

DETROIT - A group of defendants in the lawsuit brought by residents of Flint, Mich., alleging injuries from exposure to lead-contaminated drinking water on Dec. 15 filed a brief arguing that if the district court grants a stay to other defendants in the case, it should "properly" stay discovery as to all of the defendants to avoid unfair prejudice to the private corporate defendants that would be forced to provide discovery at a time when they cannot obtain critical discovery (In re Flint Water Cases [Luke Waid, et al. v. Richard D. Snyder, et al.], No. 16-10444, E.D. Mich.).
