Filing 56
ORDER granting in part and denying in part #55 MOTION for Extension of Time for Discovery and for Other Relief. Consistent with the Court's explanation in its February 16, 2023 Order (Doc. 48 at 2 n.1), Plaintiff's request that the parties may conduct the fact depositions scheduled between April 27 and May 2, 2023 is GRANTED. Plaintiff has not provided a basis for extending the time to designate his experts or provide expert reports, so his request to extend those deadlines is DENIED. Accordingly, pursuant to the Court's February 16, 2023 Order: the parties may complete fact depositions after April 17, 2023 by agreement so long as they are not taken after July 20, 2023 and do not cause further delay in completing expert witness discovery; Plaintiff shall designate his experts no later than May 1, 2023 and provide expert reports no later than May 15, 2023; Defendant shall submit its expert reports no later than June 15, 2023; and [a]ll discovery, including expert depositions, shall be completed by JULY 20, 2023. (Doc. 48). With respect to Plaintiff's assertions concerning Defendant's discovery responses, the Court notes that Plaintiff has not sought to compel additional responses, nor has he followed the requirements of LR 37.1, NDGa. and FED. R. CIV. P. 37 for doing so. Plaintiff's request for an order directing Defendant to turn over full and complete responses to Plaintiff's discovery demands is therefore DENIED. The parties are DIRECTED to confer in good faith and supplement their discovery responses as appropriate NO LATER THAN APRIL 21, 2023. If either party seeks court intervention to resolve any remaining disputes concerning discovery responses, they are DIRECTED to file a motion to compel and/or motion for protective order NO LATER THAN MAY 5, 2023, in compliance with the requirements of Rule 37 and LR 37.1.
