A change has been submitted today to the case. Now the parties will have to go through an oral argument:

Marshall: Counsel are hereby notified that the above matter is set on the Court's calendar re the following matters: Plaintiffs Motion to consolidate the related actions and appoint plaintiff lead counsel17 ; Plaintiff Weismans counter-motion for consolidation and appointment of co-lead plaintiffs and co-lead counsel,38 AND Plaintiffs Motion for leave to file sur-reply to the reply in support of motion of plaintiff Lindsey Backus to consolidate the related actions and appoint plaintiff as lead plaintiff and her choice of counsel as lead counsel,49 previously these matters were taken under submission and now oral argument is required by the Court on January 5, 2016 at 10:00 a.m.All trial counsel for the parties are ordered to appear at this date and time.

According to Wikipedia:

"Oral arguments can also occur during motion practice when one of the parties presents a motion to the court for consideration before trial, such as when the case is to be dismissed on a point of law, or when summary judgment may lie because there are no factual issues in dispute.
Oral argument operates by each party in a case taking turns to speak directly to the judge or judges with an equal amount of time allotted to each. A party may often reserve part of their time to be used for rebuttal after their adversary has presented.
Presenting lawyers usually cannot get away with simply making speeches or reading their briefs when presenting oral argument to an appeal court. Unlike trial court procedure, where judges intervene only when asked by the parties to resolve objections, it is typical for judges at the appellate level to be active participants in oral argument, interrupting the presenting lawyers and asking questions."

It sounds to me like the judge is leaning towards a dismissal at this point.
