Michael Toikach v. Christian Dior: Judge Koeltl received a request to postpone the initial case-management conference; the text shows no ruling.
Michael Toikach, Christian Dior, Inc., the parties in related actions, and the Southern District of New York’s scheduling of the initial case-management conference.
What happened
In Michael Toikach v. Christian Dior, Inc. et al., the parties requested that the initial case-management conference, scheduled for November 20, 2025, be postponed. The request was made with plaintiff’s counsel’s consent.
The request cited a pending motion to consolidate related actions and a pending motion to transfer and centralize the cases before the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation. The parties asked to wait until that panel ruled and agreed to file a joint status report afterward.
The letter is addressed to Judge John G. Koeltl, but the supplied text does not include a ruling on the request. It therefore records a scheduling request rather than a decision by the court.

Document and request
The supplied text is a November 12, 2025 letter from Mylan L. Denerstein to Judge John G. Koeltl. The letter says the parties requested an adjournment, meaning a postponement, of the initial case-management conference scheduled for November 20, 2025. It states that plaintiff’s counsel consented and that this was the parties’ first request for an adjournment.
Reasons given
The letter describes a pending motion filed in a related action seeking to consolidate this case and other related actions, appoint proposed interim class counsel and an executive committee, stay this case and defendants’ deadlines to respond, and require a consolidated class-action complaint in the proposed lead case. It also describes a pending motion before the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation seeking to transfer and centralize this case and other actions in a proposed multidistrict proceeding in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. The panel was scheduled to hear argument on December 4, 2025.
The parties asked that the conference be postponed until after the panel ruled on the transfer-and-centralization motion. They stated that the postponement would promote efficiency and conserve resources. They also agreed to file a joint status report within one week of the earlier of the panel’s decision or a ruling on the consolidation motion.
Court action
The supplied text does not state that Judge John G. Koeltl granted, denied, or otherwise ruled on the request. It is therefore not a court disposition of the case or motion.
