ORDER GRANTING Plaintiffs' Petition for an Award and Allocation of Common Benefit Attorneys' Fees and Expenses 790 . The Court hereby ORDERS that the nine percent (9%) assessment set forth in the Court's previous Common Benefit Order shall be available for distribution as an award for common benefit expenses and attorney's fees and that the one percent (1%) assessment set forth in the Common Benefit Order shall be available for distribution for common benefit expenses. In addition, because the amount of expenses incurred for the common benefit exceed the 1% set-aside, and in order to avoid increasing the expense set-aside, the Court ORDERS that the 9% attorneys' fee award may be used to pay any excess expenses (expenses that are not covered by the 1% assessment). The court further ORDERS that all expenses and MDL assessments set forth in the Plaintiffs' Co-Lead Counsel's Petition for an Award and Allocation of Common Benefit Attorneys' Fees and Expenses and Memorandum in Support be dispersed to each firm in accordance with the petition. For fees that remain after the payment of expenses and assessments, the Court ORDERS that the common benefit funds be distributed to the common benefit firms in accordance with amounts and percentages set forth in the Petition.

ORDER granting 682 Motion to Amend Expert Disclosure and Discovery Deadlines in the Unscheduled Trial Pool Cases. The first two trial cases the Court is limiting the opportunities for such modifications. However, for cases that have not been set for trial, other considerations must be taken into account. The Court wishes to conduct bellwether trials that provide meaningful direction to the parties. Plaintiffs may identify one new polypropylene degradation and mesh failure expert in the Franklin and Murray cases and may amend the expert report of Dr. Bruce Crookes in the Keup case. Defendants will be permitted to depose these witnesses and submit amended responsive reports from their experts. The parties are directed to confer in an effort to agree upon a schedule for addressing these issues that will not delay a potential January 2022 trial date should these cases be included in that trial.
