(1) In any action brought against a manufacturer, packer, distributor, carrier, holder, or seller of a food for claims related to the long-term consumption of food, all proceedings including but not limited to discovery shall be stayed during the pendency of a motion to dismiss unless the court finds for good cause shown on the motion of any party that limited discovery is necessary to preserve evidence or to prevent undue prejudice to the movant.
(2) During a stay of discovery, unless otherwise ordered by the court, any party in the case, including any plaintiff and any defendant that has been properly served with the complaint, shall preserve all documents, data compilations including but not limited to electronically recorded data and electronically stored data, and tangible objects that are in the custody or control of such party and that are relevant to the allegations in the complaint as though a request for production of those documents and things had been served pursuant to court rule.
