IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS JONESBORO DIVISION TED AND MARTHA CHANDLER VS. PLAINTIFFS 3:12-CV-00104-BRW JACOBS ENGINEERING GROUP, INC., et al. DEFENDANTS ORDER Plaintiffs filed a Motion to Compel requesting, among other things, that I order Defendant Jacobs Engineering Group, Inc., to produce all employee files, personal files, disciplinary files, reprimands, and training records of all employees who worked or advised on Job #110492.1 Defendant, in its answer to Plaintiffs’ discovery request and in its response to Plaintiffs’ Motion to Compel, objects to the request and argues that the documents are irrelevant.2 Later, the parties agreed that Defendant would submit the documents at issue to me, and that I would review them in camera and determine whether Plaintiffs are entitled to view them.3 I have received the documents, and after careful review, I am satisfied that the files obtain discoverable information. However, the parties have agreed that if I find that the documents are discoverable, a protective order can be entered. Accordingly, Defendant is directed to submit a proposed protective order within 10 days of this Order -- if it feels that one is warranted. Once a protective order has been entered, Defendant must produce the documents at issue to Plaintiffs. IT IS SO ORDERED this 4th day of April, 2013. /s/Billy Roy Wilson UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE 1 Doc. No. 50. 2 Doc. Nos. 50, 59. 3 Doc. No. 64.
