May 24, 2012 Opinion or Order Filing 64 MEMORANDUM OPINION - Once again, the Court orders the parties to cooperate with one another. This is the third discovery-related dispute on which the undersigned has had to intervene. The apparent animosity between the attorneys is impeding their abi lity to cooperate in the discovery process. Despite the Court's admonitions to cooperate, the parties (through their respective counsel) have persisted in engaging in petulant intransigence and pedantic opposition. If any further disputes should arise after the conclusion of this one, the Court will not look favorably on either party. This Court orders that counsel "cooperate in discovery so it can proceed without day-to-day supervision by the court."Signed by Honorable Robert D. Mariani on 5/24/12. (jfg)
