*789 TRANSFER ORDER

Before JOHN MINOR WISDOM, Chairman, and EDWARD WEINFELD, EDWIN A. ROBSON, WILLIAM H. BECKER, JOSEPH S. LORD, III, STANLEY A. WEIGEL, and ANDREW A. CAFFREY, Judges of the Panel.

In light of the fact that all parties generally agree on the desirability of Section 1407 treatment for this litigation, and upon consideration of the papers submitted, the Panel has found that the action listed on the attached Schedule A pending in the Southern District of New York involves common questions of fact with those actions pending in the Northern District of Georgia, and that transfer of this sole action to the Northern District of Georgia for coordinated or consolidated pretrial proceedings will serve the convenience of the parties and their witnesses and further the just and efficient disposition of this litigation.

IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the action listed on the attached Schedule A and pending in the Southern District of New York be, and the same hereby is, transferred to the Northern District of Georgia and, with the consent of that court, assigned to the Honorable William C. O’Kelley for coordinated or consolidated pretrial proceedings pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1407 with the actions pending in that district and also listed on the attached Schedule A.
