No. 2:12-cv-0915 TLN AC P

v.

ORDER

JIM DENNY, et al.,

15

Defendants.

16
On March 1, 2017, defendants notified the court that the parties had met and conferred by

17
18

telephone on five different occasions and stated that these meetings likely covered all discovery

19

issues in substance. ECF No. 122 at 2. Defendants noted that they were willing to meet and

20

confer further, if necessary, once the amended responses had been provided. Id. Plaintiff has

21

filed a request for the court to direct further meet and confer efforts on the ground that he believes

22

there are issues that still need to be addressed. ECF No. 123. Defendants shall notify the court

23

whether amended responses have been provided, and if not when they are expected to be

24

provided, and whether they believe further meet and confer efforts would be beneficial to the

25

resolution of any outstanding discovery disputes. If defendants believe further meet and confer

26

efforts would be beneficial, they should also include an estimate of how much additional time

27

they believe will be necessary to complete them.
