ORDER
Plaintiff Bobby Franklin McReynolds proceeds in this action pro se and in forma pauperis
pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Currently before the Court is Plaintiff’s Motion to Compel. ECF
No. 74.
Plaintiff has not attempted to confer with Defendants in an effort to obtain the discovery
responses without court action as required by Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 37. Plaintiff’s
incarceration does not excuse him from attempting to resolve the discovery dispute in good faith
without court intervention by contacting Defendants through written correspondence notifying
them of their alleged failure to adequately respond and giving them a deadline to respond prior to
filing a motion to compel.
Accordingly, Plaintiff’s Motion to Compel (ECF No. 74) is DENIED.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 26th day of July 2017.
/s/ Barry A. Bryant
HON. BARRY A. BRYANT
