    Defendant Tonia Hampton, Register of Deeds for McDowell County, filed this memorandum in response to Plaintiffs' motion to modify a stay order in this case. The court had originally stayed the case until a decision was reached in Bostic v. Schaefer, as that decision would likely shape the outcome of this litigation. Defendant Hampton argues the same logic still applies, and requests that the court deny Plaintiffs' motion to modify the stay order until a decision is reached in Bostic.

    IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT


    FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF NORTH CAROLINA
    CHARLOTTE DIVISION
    3:14-cv-213-MR-DLH

    GENERAL SYNOD OF THE UNITED
    CHURCH OF CHRIST, et al.,
    Plaintiffs,
    v.

    ROY COOPER, ATTORNEY GENERAL
    OF NORTH CAROLINA, et al.,
    Defendants.


    DEFENDANT HAMPTONS MEMORANDUM IN RESPONSE
    TO PLAINTIFFS MOTION TO MODIFY STAY ORDER

    Defendant Tonia Hampton, Register of Deeds for McDowell County,
    files this memorandum in response to the Plaintiffs Motion to Modify Stay
    Order (Document #93).
    At the time the Court originally stayed this action, the Court explained
    its determination to grant the stay, in part, as follows:
    The Court finds that it would be a waste of judicial resources,
    as well as the resources of the State and the Plaintiffs, to move
    forward in this case prior to a decision in Bostic. Put simply, the
    outcome in Bostic will in all likelihood shape the outcome of this
    litigation.

    2014 WL 2048068 (W.D.N.C. May 19, 2014)(Howell, Mag. J.).)
