IN RE GULF OIL CORPORATION POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS AND PATRICIA D. HOWARD
SECURITIES LITIGATION CLERK OF THE PANEL
ORDER DENYING MOTION
WITHOUT PREJUDICE
Plaintiffs in the Shlensky action pending in the
Western District of Pennsylvania have moved the Panel pursuant
to 28 U.S.C. §1407 for an order transferring the Horenstein
action in the District of Massachusetts to the Western District
of Pennsylvania for coordinated or consolidated pretrial pro-
ceedings with the action pending there. It now appears, however,
that the Shlensky action has been stayed pending completion of
proceedings in a related S.E.C. matter and, in any event,
at least until October 1, 1975. Accordingly, a transfer
of the Massachusetts action at this time would clearly not
promote the just and efficient conduct of the litigation.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the motion seeking
® transfer of the action listed on the following Schedule A,oT and pending in the District of Massachusetts, to the Western
District of Pennsylvania pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §1407 be, and
the same hereby is, DENIED, without prejudice to the right
of any party to again seek Section 1407 treatment if it feels
future circumstances so require,
FOR THE PANEL:
