June 21, 2017 Filing 63 Case no longer referred to Magistrate Judge Donald L. Cabell. (Russo, Noreen)
June 21, 2017 Filing 62 Magistrate Judge Donald L. Cabell: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered. After careful consideration of the parties' most recent submissions, the Court remains persuaded that there is a basis to seek the requested discovery under the broad standard of Rule 26. Accordingly, the Court's ruling on the plaintiff's supplemental motion to compel (Docket #57) remains unchanged. (Russo, Noreen)
June 14, 2017 Filing 61 REPLY to Response to #56 Supplemental MOTION for Discovery Regarding Residual Commissions filed by Justin Sullivan. (Attachments: #1 Exhibit 1, #2 Exhibit 2)(Haas, Andrea)
June 12, 2017 Filing 60 Magistrate Judge Donald L. Cabell: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered re #59 MOTION for Reconsideration filed by Daniel Piraino, Dumont Aviation, LLC, Dumont Aircraft Charter, LLC, Kevin Wargo. Upon reflection, the Court will treat the plaintiff's supplemental motion for discovery #56 as a motion for reconsideration of the Court's order 54 on their original motion to compel #40 . Although the defendants' response was framed as a "motion for reconsideration" #59 , the Court will treat that responsive pleading as an opposition to what is now being treated as the plaintiff's motion for reconsideration #56 . Should the plaintiff wish to reply to what the Court is now treating as the defendants' opposition, any such reply must be filed by the close of business on Wednesday, June 14, 2017. The parties should expect a ruling shortly thereafter. (Russo, Noreen)
June 8, 2017 Filing 59 MOTION for Reconsideration re 57 Order on Motion for Discovery,,,, by Dumont Aircraft Charter, LLC, Dumont Aviation, LLC, Daniel Piraino, Kevin Wargo.(Fitzgerald, Christine)
June 6, 2017 Filing 58 Judge Douglas P. Woodlock: ORDER granting #55 Joint Motion to Extend Discovery. All fact discovery to be completed by 11/29/2017; Expert discovery to be completed by 12/15/2017; dispositive motions are to be filed no later than 1/5/2018. (Beatty, Barbara)
June 1, 2017 Filing 57 Magistrate Judge Donald L. Cabell: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered granting #56 Motion for Discovery. Based on the plaintiff's supplemental submission, the motion to compel regarding Request #34, seeking the flight log and monthly owner statement for the plane registered as N954SG, now known as N954DP (the Cook aircraft), for the period between October 1, 2015, and the date of service of that request (i.e. December 21, 2016), is ALLOWED. Specifically, in light of the fact that (1) the negotiation of the sale of this aircraft began prior to the plaintiffs employment, (2) the anticipated life of this aircraft upon which any "residual" commissions would be based is a finite period of six years, and (3) the aircraft owner agreed to an increased commission of 15% rather than Dumonts typical 10% in order to give Dumont their 10% and an additional 5% to the plaintiff, there is at least a basis to argue that the plaintiff's compensation with respect to this aircraft would be handled differently than his compensation with respect to any other aircraft. For purposes of Rule 26, that is sufficient to justify the requested discovery. (DLC, law2)
May 30, 2017 Filing 56 Supplemental MOTION for Discovery Regarding Residual Commissions by Justin Sullivan. (Attachments: #1 Exhibit 1, #2 Exhibit 2, #3 Exhibit 3, #4 Exhibit 4, #5 Exhibit 5, #6 Exhibit 6, #7 Exhibit 7)(Haas, Andrea)

May 26, 2017 Filing 54 Magistrate Judge Donald L. Cabell: ELECTRONIC ORDER entered re #40 Motion to Compel. For the reasons discussed in court, the plaintiff's motion to compel discovery is ALLOWED in part and DENIED in part. Specifically, with regard to the plaintiff's request that the defendants organize and label their production, the motion to compel is DENIED without prejudice. The plaintiff is instructed initially to try using search terms to identify critical documents. If this process is not successful, the plaintiff may seek further relief from the Court within one week of the hearing. The plaintiff shall in any event consult with the deputy clerk before filing anything with the Court relating to this request. The plaintiff's motion to compel regarding Request #13, seeking discovery related to the charter sales for Lyon flights booked by the Dumont sales department during the plaintiffs employment, is ALLOWED. The plaintiff's motion to compel regarding Request #30, seeking information regarding the defendants' organizational structure, is DENIED. The plaintiff's motion to compel regarding Request #37, seeking the monthly owner statements reflecting charter proceeds during the plaintiff's employment, is ALLOWED subject to the understanding that the defendants will provide the actual owner statements but may redact sensitive information related to non-parties. The plaintiff's motion to compel regarding Request #34, seeking the owner statements and flight logs for the Cook aircraft is ALLOWED in part and DENIED in part. The defendants shall produce, as they have committed to produce, records covering the period of the plaintiff's employment. The request that the defendants produce records for the period following the end of the plaintiff's employment to the present is DENIED. As noted, the Court indicated it would be willing to reconsider this issue if the plaintiff were able within one week of the hearing to produce relevant case law supporting his legal argument that his entitlement to "residual" commissions meant he would be entitled to commissions in perpetuity even after he left the company.
