In a recent court hearing, Kaleida Health faced a setback as participants in its pension plan were unable to stop subpoenas from being served on Mercer Investment Consulting and Nixon Peabody LLP. While the attempt was unsuccessful, Kaleida may have another chance to challenge these subpoenas in a different court.
Magistrate Judge Jeremiah J. McCarthy of the US District Court for the Western District of New York made it clear during the hearing that any efforts by Kaleida to block subpoenas seeking information from Mercer must be pursued through the Southern District of New York. This presents a challenge for Kaleida as they will need to navigate the legal process in this jurisdiction in order to contest the subpoenas being served on these entities.
In regards to the subpoena issued to Nixon Peabody LLP, it remains uncertain which court would handle any attempts to quash it. This creates some ambiguity for Kaleida Health as they navigate the legal process in response to these subpoenas being served on these entities. The outcome of these legal proceedings could have significant implications for all parties involved, and it remains to be seen how they will proceed moving forward.
