April 14, 2021 Opinion or Order Filing 24 TEXT ORDER: The Court has reviewed Plaintiff's April 12, 2021 letter [D.E. 23] concerning a discovery dispute. Specifically, it appears that a dispute arose during the deposition of Detective Catalano concerning a link between Mario Rutling and Plaintiff's residence. There is no indication from the letter that the parties have made any effort to meet and confer, in an attempt to resolve this issue informally as required by the Pretrial Scheduling Order and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 37. It is also unclear from Plaintiff's letter whether this is a dispute concerning written discovery, or an instruction not to answer a deposition question. If the dispute concerns an objection to an instruction not to answer a deposition question, counsel are reminded that paragraph 5 of the Pretrial Scheduling Order (and paragraph 4 of the Amended Scheduling Order) require any such dispute to be raised with the Court at the deposition, and failure to do so may constitute waiver. In any event, all counsel are directed to meet and confer on the dispute, in an effort to resolve it informally. If they are unable to do so, they shall submit a JOINT letter, limited to five double-spaced pages per side, by the May 31, 2021. So Ordered by Magistrate Judge Michael A. Hammer on 4/14/2021.
