May 11, 2015 TEXT ORDER denying #63 Motion to Expedite. The issues and circumstances surrounding #60 Motion to Compel appear sufficiently complicated to render expedited briefing on #60 Motion to Compel unwarranted. Further, if Plaintiff prevails on #60 Motion to Compel, the Court can fashion relief that allows Plaintiff to obtain necessary discovery (including follow-up discovery based on any ordered production) after the currently-scheduled close of discovery. Sufficient time for such a remedy exists in this case, given that #67 Notice has set trial for July 2016. Finally, if any necessary follow-up discovery results in increased expenses (such as by requiring re-opening of depositions), the Court will entertain a request by Plaintiff to shift those increased expenses to Defendant. In the interim, the Court encourages both parties to take a hard look at the outstanding issues and to make sure that all positions taken can withstand the close scrutiny that will follow once briefing on #60 Motion to Compel concludes. If the Court detects gamesmanship or other discovery abuse, the responsible party and/or attorney(s) should anticipate appropriate consequences. Issued by MAG/JUDGE L. PATRICK AULD on 05/11/2015.
