While a valid move that could conclude the matter is ongoing, [Samantha Markle] should not be allowed to compel Meghan and, potentially, numerous non-parties, to invest significant resources in unnecessary discovery.

The reasons for this are as follows: (1) the Motion to Dismiss is clearly meritorious and will end the case; (2) a brief stay of discovery will not harm or prejudice [Samantha Markle]; and (3) discovery will harm Meghan, other third parties, the Court, and the First Amendment rights that are protected by the Constitution.

The list of prospective witnesses for Samantha is a lot longer than the one for Prince Andrew.
