SHERIFF GREG MUNKS, et al.

ORDER RE DISCOVERY
DISPUTE

Defendants.
/

12
13

In their discovery letter, defendants allege that plaintiffs disclosed an expert and

14

produced an expert report more than two weeks after the expert report disclosure deadline had

15

lapsed. After reviewing defendants’ discovery letter, the Court has determined that this latest

16

dispute should be treated as a formal motion and resolved on a sworn record. This normally

17

would be treated as a motion in limine at the pretrial conference, but defendants need to know

18

how to respond if the expert report is ultimately not precluded at trial.

Defendants shall file a formal motion, with supporting declarations, by NOON ON
MARCH 21, 2014. Plaintiffs shall file their opposition, with supporting declarations, by NOON
ON MARCH 26.

Defendants reply, if any, is due by NOON ON MARCH 28. The hearing shall be

held on APRIL 2, 2014, AT 8:00 A.M.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
