November 8, 2018 Filing 33 Supplement to Exhibit B to Motion to Compel (ECF 23-2) by Allied Tube & Conduit Corporation, Atkore International, Atkore International Group (Gordon, Kelley)
November 8, 2018 Filing 32 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Young B. Kim: Plaintiffs' motion to compel #23 is granted in part, denied in part, and entered and continued in part. The motion is denied as to Interrogatory Nos. 1 and 6 and Document Demand No. 7 served on Defendant Patrick Fay and Interrogatory No. 1 and Document Demand No. 10 served on Defendant Linear Solutions. The court understands Plaintiffs' concerns but the court cannot force Fay or Linear Solutions to give a different response solely because Plaintiffs do not agree with their responses. There is no indication that Defendants withheld any information based on any of their objections. The court finds that Defendants' responses to these requests are complete. However, the motion is granted as to Interrogatory Nos. 7 and 11 served on Fay. The court agrees with Plaintiffs that Fay unilaterally limited the scope of these interrogatories. Fay is ordered to supplement his answers to these two interrogatories by no later than November 13, 2018. The motion is entered and continued to the extent that the parties will be expected to focus their discussion at tomorrow's motion hearing on Document Demand No. 4 served on Fay and Interrogatory No. 10 served on Linear Solutions. Plaintiffs should be prepared to explain the relevance of these requests given that Defendants are not in the business of manufacturing electronic raceway products or conduits. Mailed notice (ma,)
