May 8, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 509 ORDER re #507 Response in Opposition to Motion. To be clear, when the Court denied LFR's motion for summary judgment, it ordered LFR to inform the Court whether it would rely on other theories of liability at trial precisely to avoid the kind of prejudice animating Matthews & Fullmer's latest filing. The Court understood that the simple fact that LFR moved affirmatively for summary judgment on certain theories did not necessarily mean that those were its only theories of liability. To the contrary, LFR's complaint in intervention, not its motion for summary judgment, controls its theory of the case. Thus, to avoid prejudicial surprise at trial, the Court ordered LFR to state its theories for the record. The Court will have no patience for new theories lying outside the complaint and the discovery conducted, and Matthews & Fullmer may thus move to strike new theories on those bases. With this understanding, the Court's previous Order stands. Signed by US Magistrate Judge Silvia Carreno-Coll on 5/8/2015.(NBB)

November 4, 2013 Opinion or Order Filing 456 ORDER. LFR Collections, a corporation purporting to be a judgment creditor of The Matthews Law Firm and claiming an interest in any fee award in favor of the Law Firm of Matthews & Fullmer, has filed a motion to intervene, Docket No. 454. Plaintiffs have until November 15, 2013, to oppose that motion. However, as funds in satisfaction of judgment are now in the registry, the Court does not wish to further delay Plaintiffs' recovery while this dispute is ongoing. Accordingly, Plaintiffs have until November 14, 2013, to file a motion detailing their proposed distribution of the money currently in the Court's registry. Consistent with the Court's previous Order on the subject, Docket No. 444, the proposed distribution must show how much of the funds shall be used for costs and the various attorneys' fees, and how much shall be distributed to each Plaintiff. LFR Collections and David Efron shall have two days after that motion is filed to object to Plaintiffs' proposed distribution without re-litigating matters already decided by the court. No extensions of time will be allowed. Once the Court accepts a distribution plan, it will distribute to Plaintiffs any money to which they are entitled, while retaining any funds that are the subject of a dispute between LFR Collections and Matthews & Fullmer until such time as that dispute is settled.

June 20, 2013 Opinion or Order Filing 401 ORDER denying #400 Motion to Withdraw as Attorney. This Court is no longer willing to tolerate the repeated attempts by instrumentalities and quasi-instrumentalities of the Commonwealth to delay proceedings by changing law firms in the midst of litigation. Indeed, this is the second time in just two weeks that the undersigned has dealt with motions of this sort filed by firms representing PREPA, and in the other case, as here, the motion was filed just after PREPA asked for some sort of relief. See Albizu-Merced v. AEE, No. 11-1969(JAG/SCC) (D.P.R. June 5, 2013) (order on PREPA's motion to withdraw). PREPA filed its response in opposition to Plaintiffs' motion to execute just six days ago, and our order to show cause was filed a mere three days ago. Now is not an appropriate time for delay. Accordingly, the motion to withdraw is DENIED. See Loc. Civ. R. 83D(b) (an attorney may not withdraw "except by leave of Court"). By Friday, June 21, 2013, one of PREPA's current counsel should personally contact (preferably by phone, but in the alternative by email and certified mail) PREPA's corporate counsel and explain the following: first, that PREPA can continue to retain the law firm of Pagan & Pagan, can hire new counsel, or can be represented by its in-house counsel, but a response to the show cause order remains due on June 28, 2013, and a failure to respond will result in the order for execution of judgment being granted; and second, that a failure of new counsel for PREPA to appear by July 12, 2013, will result in sanctions being entered against PREPA. By the close of business on June 21, 2013, certification of compliance with this order must be filed by one or all of the attorneys currently representing PREPA; failure to file the certification will result in sanctions being entered against the attorneys in their personal capacities. Signed by US Magistrate Judge Silvia Carreno-Coll on 6/20/2013. (NBB)

June 12, 2012 Opinion or Order Filing 301 ORDER on motion for reconsideration. Signed by US Magistrate Judge Silvia Carreno-Coll on 6/12/2012.(NBB)
June 12, 2012 Opinion or Order Filing 300 ORDER denying #275 Motion in Limine. We think that the motion in limine reads like a motion to dismiss, and, because it does not refer to any evidence, we treat it as such. Under Puerto Rico law, the statute of limitations only begins to run when the claimant knows of her injury and its author. The answer to that question is not apparent from the face of the complaint, and so a motion to dismiss on the matter is inappropriate here. If PREPA wished to address this issue pre-trial, it should have done so in a motion for summary judgment. Signed by US Magistrate Judge Silvia Carreno-Coll on 6/12/2012. (NBB)

June 11, 2012 Opinion or Order Filing 293 ORDER denying #283 Emergency Motion Regarding Expert Witness. The court lacks the ability to issue a subpoena to attend trial to a witness living, as the expert apparently does, in Lakeland, FL, outside of Puerto Rico and more than one hundred miles from the court. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 45(c)(3)(A)(ii). Moreover, expert witnesses are under the control of the party that hires them, and it is that party's responsibility to make arrangements for their presence. See Carter-Wallace, Inc. v. Otte, 474 F.2d 529, 536 (2d Cir. 1972) (Friendly, J.) ("[U]nlike the typical witness..., a party ordinarily has the opportunity to choose the expert witness whose testimony he desires and invariably arranges for his presence privately, by mutual agreement, and for a fee.").
