ORDER denying 190 Defendant's Motion for Attorney Fees - Defendants are reminded that discovery is meant to be a cooperative endeavor, requiring minimal judicial intervention. See Airtex Corp. v. Shelley Radiant Ceiling Co., 536 F.2d 145, 155 (7th Cir. 1976). Had defense counsel promptly responded to Mr. Hargett's inquiries regarding the location and format of produced emails, or even proactively explained the confusing nature of the email formatting at the outset of its pr oduction, this discovery dispute could have been avoided. For these reasons, the Court concludes that Plaintiff's motion was substantially justified pursuant to Rule 37(a)(5)(B) and DENIES Defendants' Motion for Attorney's Fees. [Filing No. 190 .]. Signed by Judge Jane Magnus-Stinson on 6/3/2014. (JKS)
