April 16, 2015 Filing 97 MINUTE ORDER: This matter is before the Court on the parties motions in limine. The Court rules on these motions as follows: Defendants motion in limine No. 1 #80 is granted on the basis that Formuziss report is untimely and the report does not provide a complete statement of all opinions and the basis and reasons for them. Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(a)(2)(B)(i). Plaintiffs motion in limine No. 1 #85 is denied for the same reasons. Defendants motions in limine Nos. 2 and 3 [81, 82] are granted pursuant to the parties stipulations [88, 89]. Defendants motion in limine No. 4 #83 and Plaintiffs motion in limine No. 2 #86 are both denied in part and granted in part as follows: Defendant may not introduce evidence of IHSS, Medi-Cal, or California Childrens Services benefits as collateral sources. Because the Regional Center, like Medi-Cal has lien rights, it too is excluded as a collateral source. See Brown v. Stewart, 129 Cal.App.3d 331 (1982). Defendant may however introduce evidence of Plaintiffs Blue Shield policy as a collateral source under MICRA. The Court also concludes that evidence of future collateral sources under MICRA is admissible. See Fein v. Permanente Medical Group, 38 Cal.3d 137, 165 n.21 (1985) (acknowledging award for future medical expenses that took into account future health insurance); Graham v. Workers Comp. Appeals Bd., 210 Cal.App.3d 499, 505 (1989) (section 3333.1(b) applies to future benefits). Evidence related to the Affordable Care Act is admissible as it pertains to the likelihood of Plaintiffs future insurance benefits. Finally, Plaintiffs motion in limine No. 3 #87 is denied as premature. IT IS SO ORDERED. (TEXT ENTRY ONLY) (Vine, H)

November 26, 2014 Filing 67 MINUTE ORDER: Before the Court is Defendant United States motion in limine to exclude one of three life expectancy experts disclosed by Plaintiffs Michaela Palacio, Facundo Palacio Diaz, and their daughter, I.P. (collectively, Plaintiffs), Dr. Carl Nichols #41 . Defendant Banner Health joined in the motion #51 . At the hearing on November 19, 2014, the Court held that Dr. Nichols report was deficient under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(a)(2), but allowed Plaintiffs the chance to file an amended report that comports with the rule. Plaintiffs filed an amended report #62 and Defendants replied #63 , #65 . The Court finds that the report remains deficient. It is not detailed and complete and the opinions are not thoroughly set forth and supported. See Pineda v. City & Cnty. of San Francisco, 280 F.R.D. 517, 520 (N.D. Cal. 2012). Plaintiffs are obligated to ensure that their expert reports meet these requirements. Yet this is Plaintiffs third attempt to submit a proper report for Dr. Nichols and they have again failed. The Court declines to give Plaintiffs a fourth chance, and will now exclude Dr. Nichols under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 37(c)(1). IT IS SO ORDERED. (TEXT ENTRY ONLY)(Vine, H)
