Filing 38
ORDER. For the discovery dispute letters, Dkt. Nos. 35, 37, deposition topics 5 and 7 are not entirely irrelevant, as Ford urges, but the burden of preparing a witness to testify on these topics going back to 2015 is potentially unwarranted as a matter of efficiency, economy, and proportion. The Court cannot determine from the letters what the burden might be. Consequently, the lead counsel for the parties are directed to meet and confer by November 5, 2021, about the number of lawsuits and applications that may be responsive to the topics. If the volume is substantial, a better approach may be to identify responsive cases and applications in an interrogatory response rather than by witness testimony. In any event, going back to 2015 is over-broad, and the time period is limited to 3 years prior to the filing of this case. Signed by Judge James Donato on 10/25/2021.
