No. 2:12-cv-2330 LKK CKD

v.

ORDER

CASTLE PARK, LLC, et al.,

15

Defendants.

16
Pending before the court are plaintiff’s ex parte applications regarding discovery disputes.

17
18

A telephonic conference was held before the undersigned regarding plaintiff’s ex parte

19

application to compel attendance at depositions. In light of the recent association of defense

20

counsel, plaintiff’s ex parte applications will be denied at this time. It is the court’s expectation

21

that the parties will meaningfully meet and confer regarding the setting of depositions and site

22

inspections. Should further discovery disputes arise in this action which require court

23

intervention, the parties are directed to submit a joint letter brief, not exceeding four pages. Upon

24

review of the letter brief, the matter will be set for hearing should the court deem it necessary.
