ORDER

Bridgeport Fittings, Inc. petitions for a writ of mandamus to direct the United States District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania to grant summary judgment in its favor.

Upon consideration of the papers submitted, the court determines that Bridgeport has not shown clear entitlement to the relief sought.

Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED THAT:

(1) The petition for a writ of mandamus is denied. (2) The motion to stay the district court's trial is denied.
