March 31, 2017 Opinion or Order Filing 34 ORDER denying #28 Motion to Compel. The record presented on the motion does not allow the Court to find that the stated interrogatory responses were deficient under Rule 37. Plaintiff forgets that the purpose of a motion to compel is not to reconcile factual conflicts that are best left for impeachment at trial. Nor are they intended as a vehicle to obtain new answers to modified or clarified interrogatories. The purpose of a Rule 37 motion is to simply find whether the given answer is responsive to the question. Here, the answer was arguably responsive (though Plaintiff is undoubtedly entitled to serve modified requests that accomplish its goals). That is sufficient to defeat the motion under Rule 37. Docket Order Signed by Magistrate Judge Edwin G. Torres on 3/31/2017. (EGT)

November 14, 2016 Opinion or Order Filing 15 ORDER granting in part and denying in part #13 Motion for Discovery. Upon review of the motion that seeks ex parte relief, the Court finds little good cause to grant the motion entirely at this point. No injunction motion has yet been filed; the issues in dispute appear to have arisen some time ago; and the immediate need for widespread discovery without input from the responding party is unclear. Therefore, the request for authority to issue written discovery and deposition notices for immediate compliance is Denied. The motion is Granted, however, with respect to Plaintiff's right to serve written discovery requests prior to the Rule 16 scheduling conference. Plaintiff may serve such requests together with or immediately after service of the complaint. Other forms of discovery may also be initiated but only after consultation with the responding party as to time and scope. A renewed motion may certainly be filed if an agreement is not reached as to those matters. Docket Order Signed by Magistrate Judge Edwin G. Torres on 11/14/2016. (EGT)
