13
Casillas, Holguin, Moore, and King during an escort to the library. Defendants Holland,
Kilmer, Lomas, and Santa Maria watched the beating but failed to intervene due to the
“code of silence” among correctional officers. Defendant Lomas then grabbed Plaintiff’s
leg, twisting it and bending it backwards. Defendants Gonzales and A. Martinez raised
Plaintiff’s handcuffed arms above his head and dragged him by his arms a distance of
10-15 yards. Defendants Nurses Deluna and Bennett, who had by that point arrived with
medical equipment, looked on and laughed.
Plaintiff was then taken to a holding cell where Defendant Gonzales assaulted

him. Defendants G. Arellano, C. Martinez, Deluna and Bennett stood by and watched
and failed to intervene. Someone pulled Plaintiff out of the cell once more and threw him
to the ground. Defendants A. Martinez, Delgado, Barron, Montanez, Mayfield and
Moreno punched Plaintiff repeatedly.

Legal Standards
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(b)(1) (as amended eff. Dec. 1, 2015) sets forth
the following standard pertaining to relevance:
Parties may obtain discovery regarding any nonprivileged
matter that is relevant to any party's claim or defense and
proportional to the needs of the case, considering the
importance of the issues at stake in the action, the amount in
controversy, the parties' relative access to relevant
information, the parties' resources, the importance of the
discovery in resolving the issues, and whether the burden or
expense of the proposed discovery outweighs its likely
benefit. Information within this scope of discovery need not
be admissible in evidence to be discoverable.
Limitations to discovery are set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure
26(b)(2)(C), which provides:
On motion or on its own, the court must limit the frequency or
extent of discovery otherwise allowed by these rules or by
local rule if it determines that:
(i) the discovery sought is unreasonably cumulative or
duplicative, or can be obtained from some other source that
is more convenient, less burdensome, or less expensive;
(ii) the party seeking discovery has had ample
opportunity to obtain the information by discovery in the
action; or
(iii) the proposed discovery is outside the scope
permitted by Rule 26(b)(1).
28
3
1
Under Rule 37 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, “a party seeking discovery
2
may move for an order compelling an answer, designation, production, or inspection.”
3
Fed. R. Civ. P. 37(a)(3) (B). The court may order a party to provide further responses to
4
an “evasive or incomplete disclosure, answer, or response.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 37(a)(4).
5
“District courts have ‘broad discretion to manage discovery and to control the course of
6
litigation under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 16.’” Hunt v. County of Orange, 672 F.3d
7
606, 616 (9th Cir. 2012) (quoting Avila v. Willits Envtl. Remediation Trust, 633 F.3d 828,
8
833 (9th Cir. 2011)). Generally, if the responding party objects to a discovery request,
9
the party moving to compel bears the burden of demonstrating why the objections are
10
not justified. E.g., Grabek v. Dickinson, 2012 WL 113799, at *1 (E.D. Cal. Jan. 13, 2012);
11
Ellis v. Cambra, 2008 WL 860523, at *4 (E.D. Cal. Mar. 27, 2008). This requires the
12
moving party to inform the Court which discovery requests are the subject of the motion
13
to compel, and, for each disputed response, why the information sought is relevant and
14
why the responding party's objections are not meritorious. Grabek, 2012 WL 113799, at
15
*1; Womack v. Virga, 2011 WL 6703958, at *3 (E.D. Cal. Dec. 21, 2011).
The Court is vested with broad discretion to manage discovery and
16
17
18
19
20
21
22
23
24
25
26
27
notwithstanding these procedures, Plaintiff is entitled to leniency as a pro se litigant;
therefore, to the extent possible, the Court endeavors to resolve Plaintiff's motion to
compel on its merits. Hunt, 672 F.3d at 616; Surfvivor Media, Inc. v. Survivor
Productions, 406 F.3d 625, 635 (9th Cir. 2005); Hallett v. Morgan, 296 F.3d 732, 751
(9th Cir. 2002).
IV.
Plaintiff’s Motion to Compel
Plaintiff’s motion to compel concerns discovery requests that were served on May
12, 2016. Defendants served their responses on June 20, 2016, and served their
supplemental responses on August 25, 2016.
At issue here are (1) Defendants’ collective responses to Plaintiff’s First Request
for Production of Documents (“RPD”) and (2) Defendants Nurses Bennett and Moore’s
individual responses to Plaintiff’s First Set of Interrogatories.
28

1

3
A.
Request for Production of Documents
Plaintiff objects to Defendants’ responses to RPD Nos. 1-4 and 6-23. These
requests can be separated into three groups as set forth here:
1.
4
5
6
7
8
9
In the first group of requests, Plaintiff seeks documents unrelated to the incident
underlying this case. Specifically, he seeks
“[California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (“CDCR”)] Form
2140, Internal Affairs Allegation Logs against all Defendant(s)” (RPD No.
3);
12
13
“Copies of all logs of allegations of misconduct” against all of the
Defendants (RPD No. 2);
10
11
Requests Concerning Unrelated Complaints
“CDCR Form 989, Confidential Request for Internal Affairs Investigations
against all Defendant(s)” (RPD No. 4);
“Copies of verdicts, settlements, releases, and related complaints involving
14
all Defendant(s), from the time they became employed with CDCR to
15
16
current” (RPD No. 6);
17
that record any complaint registered with the agency by any inmate, fellow
18
19
officer, or private citizen” (RPD No. 8);
20
21
“All tape recordings and/or transcriptions thereof, notes, and memoranda
by investigation personnel of the agency made pursuant to investigations
25
27
“All statements, written, video, or oral, made by persons who brought said
complaints” (RPD No. 11);
24
26
“The names, addresses, and telephone numbers of all persons interviewed
by the agency during the investigation of said complaints” (RPD No. 10);
22
23
“Any and all documents in the personnel records / files of all Defendant(s)
described in [RPD No. 8]” (RPD No. 12);
“The names and assignments of investigators and other personnel
employed by the agency in investigations described in [RPD No. 8]” (RPD
28
5
No. 13);
1
2
‘conclusions’ reached by any officer investigating the complaint” (RPD No.
3
14);
4
5
fellow officers pertaining to all Defendant(s) and their engaging in or
7
propensity to engage in all illegal, nefarious, vindictive, retaliatory, etc.
8
10
conduct whatsoever described in [RPD No. 8] (RPD No. 15);
“Any and all documents that record disciplinary action commenced,
imposed, or recommended against all Defendant(s) for any type of conduct
11
12
“All test records, reports, and statements, including but not limited to
letters, reports, and oral conversations of psychiatrists, psychologists, and
6
9
“All investigative reports made as a result of said complaints, including all
whatsoever described in [RPD No. 8]” (RPD No. 16); and
“Copies of all CDCR, Medical Report of Injury or Unusual Occurrence
13
performed by Defendant Hollis Bennett on any prisoner, staff, officer, etc.
14
while she has been employed with the Department” (RPD No. 20).
15
As noted supra, Plaintiff is proceeding on excessive force and failure to protect
16
claims against the Defendants. The relevant inquiry for the excessive force claim is
17
18
“whether force was applied in a good-faith effort to maintain or restore discipline, or
maliciously and sadistically to cause harm.” Hudson v. McMillian, 503 U.S. 1, 6-7 (1992);
19
Whitley v. Albers, 475 U.S. 312, 320 (1986). When analyzing whether the use of force
20
was malicious or sadistic, factors to be balanced are: (1) the extent of the injury, (2) the
21
need for the application of force, (3) the relationship between the need and the severity
22
of the force used, (4) the threat perceived, and (5) efforts made to mitigate the force
23
being used. Whitley, 475 U.S. at 320-21. For a failure to protect claim, it is well24
established that prison officials have a duty to take reasonable steps to protect inmates
25
from physical abuse. Farmer v. Brennan, 511 U.S. 825, 832-33 (1994) (quotations
26
omitted). To establish a violation of this duty, the prisoner must show first, that he was
27
incarcerated under conditions posing a substantial risk of serious harm; and second, that
28
6
1
a prison official knew of and was deliberately indifferent to this risk. Id. at 834.
2
Defendants’ past conduct and “propensity to engage in all illegal, nefarious,
3
vindictive, retaliatory, etc. conduct” do not constitute elements of either of these claims.
4
Moreover, Federal Rule of Evidence 404 prohibits evidence of other crimes, wrongs, or
5
acts to prove the character of a person in order to show action in conformity therewith.
6
Fed. R. Evid. 404(b). Even if otherwise allowable, consideration of whether to admit such
7
evidence would require the Court to conduct a trial-within-a-trial with regard to each of
8
the alleged acts of Defendants to determine if it reflected negatively upon such
9
Defendant in a relevant way. The Court finds that the probative value, if any, of such
10
evidence would be substantially outweighed by the undue amount of time that would
11
have to be devoted to the conduct of such procedures. Fed. R. Evid. 403.
12
Plaintiff’s motion as to these requests will therefore be denied.
2.
13
14
15
16
In the second group of requests, Plaintiff seeks documents related to the March
12, 2015, assault. These include the following requests:
regarding the events which form the basis of the causes of action in this
18
20
21
22
“Any statements by officers to investigators in internal affairs or at the
institutions all Defendant(s) have been or are currently employed at
17
19
Requests Concerning Incident at Issue
case” (RPD No. 17);
“All written statements, originals or copies, identifiable as reports about the
incident on March 12, 2015, made by CDCR employees and/or witnesses”
(RPD No. 19);
Defendants’ supplemental response to these two requests includes the
23
production of the following documents: Rules Violation Report, Log No. FA-15-04-0004,
24
Battery on a Peace Officer, dated 3/12/15 (AGO 078 to 083), Rules Violation Report,
25
Log No. FA-15-03-0014, Possession of an Inmate Manufactured Weapon, dated 3/12/15
26
27
(AGO 084 to 089), Crime/Incident Report, Log No. CCI-FAA-15-03-0044A2, dated
3/12/15 (AGO 090 to 157), Multi-Purpose Worksheet for Inmate Conduct/Information

11
Document CDC 115-C Supplemental (AGO 158-160), Amended Notice of Unusual
Occurrence/Incident Administrative Contact Report (AGO 161), California Correctional
Institution Miranda Right Form, Battery On A Peace Officer, CCI Holding Cell Log, CDC
128-B, (AGO 162-164), Memorandum Subject, Clarification to Incident Report CCI-FAA15-03-0044, dated 2/22/16, Employee's Report to Supervisor of Job Related
Injury/Illness and attachments (AGO 165-180), Probable Cause Declaration/Formal
Complaint Request, District Attorney Referral Status Report, CCI Investigation Service
Unit, Complaint, Case No. CCI15-0044 (AGO 181-195).
In his reply, Plaintiff claims that some of the documents produced by the
Defendants in response to RPD Nos. 17 and 19 were those that Plaintiff himself had
initially produced to defense counsel “on his own accord and absent a request.” Pl.’s
Reply at 8-9. Even if true, Plaintiff does not claim that the production was deficient in
12
any way. He also does not identify any other documents that would be responsive to
13
these requests that were not produced.
14
Defendants have asserted the Official Information Privilege and individual privacy
15
16
17
18
19
20
21
22
23
24
rights in other unidentified documents, but they have not supported these assertions with
a privilege log. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(b)(5)(A). The privilege log submitted with their
Opposition focuses solely on documents responsive to RPD Nos. 6 and 8-16. See Defs.’
Opp’n Ex. C (ECF No. 34-4). The failure to include a privilege log in support of their
claims of privilege and privacy is found to constitute a waiver of those objections. See
Miller v. Pancucci, 141 F.R.D. 292, 300 (9th Cir. 1992); Burlington Northern & Santa Fe
Ry. Co. v. U.S. Dist. Ct. for the Dist. of Mont., 408 F.3d 1142, 1149 (9th Cir. 2005).
It does not appear Defendants have declared under penalty of perjury that they
have produced all documents responsive to RPD Nos. 17 and 19. They shall do so
within ten days from the date of this Order. To the extent they need to identity and
25
produce additional documents to ensure that their declaration is truthful, they shall do
26
that within the same ten-day period. Out of respect for possible legitimate security
27
concerns, Defendants may redact from any such additional records personal identifying
28
8
1
2
3
information beyond last names and titles of corrections officers and officials and redact in
full names of confidential informants, subject to Plaintiff’s reserved right to seek release
of same for good cause shown.
3.
4
In the third and final group of requests, Plaintiff seeks the following miscellaneous
5
6
Miscellaneous Requests
documents:
7
A CDCR “December 20, 2011 Directive to all Institutions regarding
Institutional grievances titled: Secure Appeal collection sides [sic] and
8
related matters” (RPD No. 1);
9
10
“Any and all CDCR 115’s, 115-A’s, 115-B’s, 115-C’s, and 837’s written /
authored by all Defendant(s) as well as CDCR 7219’s” (RPD No. 18);
11
12
“Emails, text messages, and phone records of all Defendant(s) from
February 1, 20153 to current” (RPD No. 21);
13
“California Correctional Institution Staff Roster for the entire Facility 4A”
14
(RPD No. 22); and
15
16
Holland in February 2015 from Plaintiff McCoy regarding living conditions
17
on Facility 4A in Building 6” (RPD No. 23).
18
19
20
21
In their supplemental response to RPD No. 1, Defendants produced a December
30, 2011 Memorandum to Associate Directors, Division of Adult Institutions regarding
“Secure Appeal Collection Sites and Related Matter.” Plaintiff does not challenge this
production as deficient. Accordingly, his request will be denied as to RPD No. 1.
22
23
“Copy of written complaint to California Correctional Institution warden Kim
The Court will also deny Plaintiff’s motion as to RPD No. 18; Defendants’
objection based on overbreadth is sustained.
24
The Court will deny Plaintiff’s motion as to RPD No. 21 upon sustaining
25
Defendant’s objections based on relevance. While Plaintiff claims these documents are
26
necessary “because at least two Defendants … are no longer working at the prison and
27
28
3
Plaintiff’s original request included the date “February 1, 2016.” In his motion, he claims this was in error
and should have read February 1, 2015. Pl.’s Mot. Compel at 25.

have been in communications with other Defendants,” Plaintiff may not use discovery
requests to engage in a fishing expedition in the hopes that he may turn up some
relevant or useful information. Rivera v. NIBCO, Inc., 364 F.3d 1057, 1072 (9th Cir.
2004).
And lastly, Plaintiff’s motion will be denied as to RPD No. 23. The document that
he seeks was authored by him. He asserts that copies of these sorts of complaints are
not placed in an inmate’s C-File due to their confidential nature. His request for a copy of
same is reason to believe he does not have a copy. Defendants shall produce a copy of
same to Plaintiff within ten days of the date of this Order unless they can show they do
not have it or provide other good cause why they cannot so produce it.
Regarding RPD No. 22, Plaintiff clarifies in his motion that he seeks the staff
roster only for the date of the assault in this case, March 12, 2015, and limited to the
12
facility where the assault occurred. Since the identities of other staff members may be
13
relevant to the prosecution of this action, his motion will be granted. Defendants, who
14
have indicated that they are in the process of locating the requested information, shall
15
16
17
18
produce this information to Plaintiff within ten days.
B.
Interrogatories
Plaintiff next seeks to compel further responses to a number of interrogatories
served on Defendants Nurses Bennett and Moore.
19
20
21
1.
Plaintiff challenges Nurse Bennett’s responses to two interrogatories:
22
23
24
Defendant Nurse Hollis Bennett
Interrogatory No. 23: Are you aware that the brain is very sensitive,
perhaps the most sensitive organ in the human body?
Interrogatory No. 24: What is the procedure for treating head injuries?
Defendants object that these interrogatories and potential responses to them lack
25
relevance. In his motion, Plaintiff asserts that the interrogatories relate to his claim that
26
Nurse Bennett “did deprive Plaintiff of adequate treatment in conspiracy with other
27
named Defendants.” Pl.’s Mot. Compel at 4. To the extent Plaintiff is suggesting that
28
10
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
Nurse Bennett was deliberately indifferent to Plaintiff’s medical needs, the Court’s
Screening Order found that Plaintiff asserted only Eighth Amendment excessive force
and failure to protect claims. See November 19, 2015, Screening Order at 5 n.3 (“In the
Court’s prior screening order, the Court advised Plaintiff to link unnamed Defendants and
of the elements for stating retaliation and medical indifference claims. Plaintiff’s SAC
reiterates that he is only alleging excessive force and failure to protect claims.”) It may
be that he omitted such a claim because there was no basis for alleging that her alleged
thirty-minute delay in treating him resulted in any additional injury. See McGuckin v.
Smith, 974 F.2d 1050, 1060 (9th Cir. 1992).
Therefore, Defendants’ relevance objection will be sustained. The undersigned
also finds these interrogatories to be too overbroad and vague to be answerable.
2.
12
13
Defendant Nurse Vanessa Moore
Plaintiff challenges Nurse Moore’s responses to four interrogatories:
Interrogatory No. 1: Prior to working at California Correctional Institution
14
have you been employed at any other prison operated by California
15
Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation or any other entity? If so,
16
17
18
19
20
21
22
23
24
where?
In response to Defendant’s relevance objection, Plaintiff states this information
will help him determine if Nurse Moore had previously been transferred from other
institutions based on allegations of misconduct. Plaintiff’s motion will be denied as to this
interrogatory on the same grounds as set forth in Section IV.A.1. above relating to
discovery of Defendants’ alleged prior bad acts.
Interrogatory No. 8: What type of unit is this where you were assigned to
work on March, 12, 2015? E.g., Security Housing Unit, Segregated
Housing Unit, etc.
25
Defendant responded to this interrogatory as follows: “On May 12, 2015, I worked
26
in the Administrative Segregation Unit.” Plaintiff claims Defendant’s response is deficient
27
because it includes an incorrect date. Recognizing the error, Defendant has corrected
28
11
1
the date in her supplemental response.
2
to work in the unit?
3
Defendant objected to this interrogatory as vague and ambiguous and irrelevant.
4
5
6
7
8
9
Plaintiff claims this information is relevant “in that upon what’s been presented thus far,
all but eight Defendants acknowledge they were even at the incident site which gives
rise to the presumption that they are not being truthful because the sole purpose for the
amount of staff in these units are for penological, security purposes.” Pl.’s Mot. Compel
at 8.
Defendant’s objections will be sustained. This interrogatory is vague and
10
11
Interrogatory No. 10: What is the purpose of the amount of staff assigned
ambiguous, and Plaintiff’s unqualified speculation as to the relationship between the
number of assigned staff members and the March 12, 2015, assault is irrelevant and
12
potentially prejudicial.
13
Interrogatory No. 25: Do you associate with any of the Defendants in this
14
action beside [sic] being at work?
15
16
17
18
In response to Defendant’s relevance objection, Plaintiff claims this information
“will lead to the discovery of evidence proving that Defendant’s contentions are false”
i.e., undermine this Defendant’s assertion “that she knows absolutely nothing about the
incident that gave rise to this complaint.” Pl.’s Mot. Compel at 9.
19
Plaintiff, as the moving party, bears the burden of demonstrating relevance. He
20
has not done so here, and certainly not shown justification for invading a Defendant’s
21
personal life and relationships.
22
23
24
25
26
27
V.
Conclusion
Based on the foregoing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:
1. Plaintiff’s July 28, 2016, motion to compel (ECF No. 33) is GRANTED IN
