As stated in Plaintiffs' Pretrial Statement of April 14, (Docket Entry 190), since expert depositions will not be taken in this case, Plaintiffs believe expert reports are not needed for the purposes of this trial. Document production and review is still ongoing in this case. Should the Court require expert reports, Plaintiffs will provide such reports to the extent Plaintiffs' expert witnesses have had the opportunity to analyze data and form and expert opinion.
