Opinion of the Court

so requires."). Given Plaintiff's intended motion to amend, the court finds that a brief stay of these proceedings is warranted. See Clinton v. Jones, 520 U.S. 681, 706 (1997) ("The [d]istrict [c]ourt has broad discretion to stay proceedings as an incident to its power to control its own docket."). However, the court denies Defendants' motion to stay at this time. Defendants may raise a subsequent motion to stay after they file their intended dispositive motions.

Accordingly:

1. Defendants' Motion to Stay and Reschedule Case Management Conference (Dkt. 76) is DENIED.

2. Plaintiff's Motion to Stay Proceedings for Plaintiff to Correct Deficiencies in Causes of Actions in First Amended Complaint and Move for Leave to File Second Amended Complaint (Dkt. 149) is GRANTED.

3. Plaintiff shall move to amend his complaint on or before March 17, 2025. Plaintiff is advised that failure to comply with this order may result in the dismissal of this action without further notice. (See Dkt. 8.)

4. This case is STAYED until March 17, 2025.

ORDERED in Orlando, Florida, on February 26, 2025.
