`
`LEWIS J. LIMAN, United States District Judge:
`
`
`The above-captioned cases involve common questions of law and fact. For convenience,
`expedition, and judicial economy, and noting that no party has objected despite the opportunity
`to do so, the Court exercises its discretion to consolidate these cases into a single action. See
`Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 42(a)(2).
`
`The Clerk of Court is directed to consolidate all cases listed above under case number
`20-cv-10642, and to close all other cases. Counsel are directed to make filings only under
`case number 20-cv-10642.
