Upon the foregoing papers, it is ordered that this motion is granted.
Plaintiff's motion to consolidate is granted. While the Court appreciates the concerns raised by
defendant The City of New York (“City”) given the early stages of the two proceedings, the Court finds
that the application should be granted as the lawsuits involve common questions of law and fact and will
save the Court the additional time and expense of conducting two trials. The Court finds that the City
will not be prejudiced by a full consolidation of these actions as opposed to partial consolidation for
discovery purposes only. Settle order on notice.
