Executive Summary
The court granted a limited stay of briefing on motions to dismiss FTI Consulting's third amended complaint, pending resolution of motions to compel arbitration and FTI's own motion to file a fourth amended complaint. This is a routine procedural order that delays the case timeline but does not resolve any substantive claims or counterclaims.
Court Ruling Details
Key Facts
- FTI Consulting and Compass Lexecon sued former employees Jonathan Orszag and Mark Israel, and Econic Partners, over post-employment events.
- Orszag filed counterclaims against FTI and CEO Steven Gunby for breach of contract, tortious interference, and unjust enrichment.
- The court granted a stay of the reply brief deadline for motions to dismiss the third amended complaint until motions to compel arbitration and FTI's motion to amend are resolved.
- The stay is limited — replies are due within 14 days of the court's resolution of those motions, not the 30 days defendants requested.
- Approximately 11 other motions in the case continue unaffected by this order.
- No damages, injunctions, or substantive liability determinations were made.
Financial Impact
No financial impact — purely procedural ruling with no damages awarded or business restrictions imposed.
Risk Factors
- If arbitration is granted, some or all claims may be removed from court, potentially narrowing the case against FTI.
- If FTI's motion to amend is granted, the operative complaint changes and pending motions to dismiss become moot — delaying substantive resolution.
