ORDER 
THIS CAUSE is before the Court on Plaintiffs' Motion for Protective Order Against 
Piecemeal Depositions of Jane Doe No.'s 2, 3, 4, and 7 and Motion to Consolidate Cases for 
Purposes of Discovery (DE 66 in 08-80119; DE 58 in 08-80232; DE 73 in 08-80380; DE 23 in 
08-80993). The Court has reviewed the motions, responses, replies, and is otherwise fully 
advised in the premesis. It is hereby 
ORDERED AND ADJUDGED as follows: 
Plaintiffs' Motion for Protective Order Against Piecemeal Depositions is GRANTED, 
pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(c). As to each of the ten above-styled cases, Defendant is limited

to a single deposition of each Plaintiff, during which Defendant may depose the plaintiff as both 
a party and a witness to all other cases of a similar nature of which the plaintiff deposed is aware. 
Defendant should not expect to be able to re-depose any plaintiff relative to any new cases that 
may be filed. Therefore, Defendant should examine each plaintiff about the facts relating to all 
individuals of whom they are aware, regardless of whether an individual has in fact filed a claim 
against Defendant. In the event additional cases are filed, upon a showing of good cause, the 
Court will determine whether Defendant will be permitted to re-depose any of the plaintiffs as 
witnesses to the allegations made in those newly filed cases. 
Plaintiffs' Motion to Consolidate Cases for Purposes of Discovery is GRANTED. In the 
interests of judicial economy and efficiency, cases 08-80119, 08-80232, 08-80380, and 08-80993 
are hereby CONSOLIDATED for purposes of discovery only. 
Additionally, the parties in the other six above-styled causes (08-80381, 08-80994, 
08-80811, 08-80893 09-80469, 09-80591) are hereby ORDERED TO SHOW CAUSE on or 
before May 5, 2009 why all of the cases should not be consolidated for discovery purposes. 
DONE AND ORDERED in 
Florida, this 28th day of April, 2009
