IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF OHIO WESTERN DIVISION CHRISTOPHER COLLIER, Case No. 3:21-cv-00282 Plaintiff, District Judge Thomas M. Rose v. Magistrate Judge Peter B. Silvain, Jr. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Defendant.

ORDER This matter is before the Court on the Unopposed Motion of Defendant United States of America for Stay of Litigation (Doc. #7). Pursuant to the Court’s inherent authority to control its own docket, Clinton v. Jones,

(1997); F.T.C. v. E.M.A. Nationwide, Inc.,

(6th Cir. 2014), the Court GRANTS the Unopposed Motion. It is thus ORDERED that the above-captioned case is STAYED for no longer than 60 days. Defendant has not yet filed an answer or other papers responsive to the Complaint (Doc. #3) and, consistent

with Fed. R. Civ. P. 6(b), the Court ORDERS that Defendant is not obligated to do so until fourteen (14) days after this stay Order is lifted. Accordingly, this case is STAYED until January 31, 2022, unless the parties notify the Court that the issues outlined in the Motion have been resolved sooner and request that the stay be lifted. IT IS SO ORDERED. November 30, 2021 _s/_P_e_te_r_ _B_. _S_il_v_a_in_,_ J_r_._______ Peter B. Silvain, Jr. United States Magistrate Judge
