ORDER CLARIFYING THIRD AMENDED CASE MANAGEMENT ORDER RE NON-PARTY SUBPOENAS
Issued on July 9, 2010, the third amended case management order (Dkt. No. 667) is the operative scheduling order in this matter. Among other items, it stated that plaintiffs "could take document and deposition discovery from any two non-party large entities like Kaiser said by counsel to have likely obtained hidden concessions" (July 9 order at 2). The parties now seek clarification whether the order intended that plaintiffs be allowed to serve this non-party discovery on a total of two entities or on two entities per defendant. The intent and plain language of the order is that plaintiffs be limited to two non-party subpoenas (and accompanying document requests) in total, not two per defendant. As noted in the third amended case

management order, the document requests must be narrowly drawn to a small number of drugs for a discrete time period and cannot be broad fishing expeditions. Please do not use this purported issue as an excuse to ask for a deadline extension.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated: August 3, 2010.
