September 30, 2010 Opinion or Order Filing 104 OPINION AND ORDER. #99499 I find that a conflict of interest exists in Corporation Counsel's concurrent representation of Jones on the one hand and Nyame and Goldbourne on the other. Unless Jones, Nyame and Goldbourne all submit affidavits waiving their rights to assert the contradictory defenses described herein within 20 days, Corporation Counsel is disqualified from representing Jones. Alternatively, Corporation Counsel can continue to represent Jones if, within 20 days, it certifies to the Court that it no longer represents the other defendants and has relinquished all oversight and control with respect to the representation of the other defendants.

November 5, 2009 Opinion or Order Filing 57 ORDER: 1. Defendants are directed to comply in full withparagraph 2 of my July 15, 2009 Order no later than November 11, 2009. Defendants' application to limitthe time period for which performance audits are to be produced is denied. Defendants did not request any temporal limit when the matter was first raised on July 13, 2009, and the time for a motion to reconsider my July 15, 2009 Order is long passed. Because defendants never timely sought a temporal limitation on the documents to be produced, this objection is waived. Because this is the second time I have ordered production of these documents, a further unjustified failure to produce the documents will result in the imposition ofsanctions. Given that the documents were ordered produced more than three months ago, the press of other business -- on either defendants' counsel or on the defendants themselves -- does not constitute a justification for further delay. 2. Plaintiffs' application for an extension of time to complete service on Fields is granted; plaintiffs are granted until November 18, 2009 to completeservice on Fields. Plaintiffs' time to complete service on Goldbourne is extended nunc pro tunc to November 4, 2009.3. Plaintiffs' application to take additional depositions beyond the presumptive limit of ten (10) is denied with respect to Martin Horn and Rebeccah Pinney; plaintiffs' application is granted with respect to their request to depose the New York State Commission of Correction ("NYSCC") pursuant to FRCP 30(b)(6). Any 30(b)(6) deposition of the NYSCC shall be limited to the topics identified in the attachment to plaintiffs' July 24, 2009 letter. The Order is without prejudice to any objection the NYSCC may assert in response to any notice of deposition served upon it. 4. All fact discovery is to be completed no later than January 15, 2010. 5. Plaintiffs shall make or supplement their Rule 26(a)(2) disclosures with respect to experts on liability issues no later than January 15, 2009.6. Defendants shall make their Rule 26(a)(2) disclosures on liability issues no later than February 16, 2009. 7. Plaintiffs shall serve and file their disqualification motion no later than November 20, 2009. Defendants shall serve and file their opposition no later than December 11, 2009. Plaintiffs shall serve and file their reply no later than December 21, 2009. All papers shall be served in a manner such that they are received by the adverse party on the date indicated. I strongly suggest that counsel on both sides consent to service by fax or e-mail. Oral argument on the motion will be held on January 8, 2010 at 2:00 p.m. in Courtroom 18A, United States Courthouse, 500 Pearl Street, New York, New York 10007.8. The parties' contemplated motions to amend the complaint, for sanctions and for summary judgment are stayed pending resolution of the motion to disqualify. 9. Defendants' application to adjourn all remainingdepositions until the motion to disqualify is resolved is denied. (Discovery due by 1/15/2010. Motions due by 11/20/2009. Replies due by 12/21/2009. Responses due by 12/11/2009. Rule 26(a)(2) Initial Disclosures due by 2/16/2010. Service due by 11/18/2009.

October 29, 2009 Opinion or Order Filing 56 ORDER.... I have reviewed each of the reports the Commission has submitted. Given the relatively minor and largely non-personal references to the decedents' mental health issues, I find that the interests of justice do warrant disclosure of the unredacted report to counsel. In order to minimize the burden on the Commission, which is a non-party, and its counsel, counsel for plaintiff may pick up the review copies from my chambers; plaintiff's counsel is directed to contact my Deputy, Mr. Bruce Hampton ((212) 805-6112) to arrange a date and time for counsel to pick p the reports. He is directed to provide copies to counsel for all other parties. (Signed by Magistrate Judge Henry B. Pitman on 10/29/09) Copies sent by chambers.(cd)

Plaintiff's application to produce documentation concerning Angel Ogando's presence at the mental health clinic is denied without prejudice to renewal after production of the Mental Health Clinic Logbook.Plaintiffs' application to compel production of Simflex Nyame and Patricia Jones' quarterly reviews is denied. Plaintiffs' application to compel production of the Suicide Watch Facility Report and the Daily Mental Health Report is denied without prejudice. Defendants' counsel is, however, directed to review these documents for December 19-20, 2007 and confer with plaintiffs' counsel regarding this request by July 27, 2009 in an effort to resolve the dispute concerning these documents amicably.
