The court held a discovery hearing on April 6, 2017. This order addresses some of the parties’
disputes and sets forth a process to resolve the rest.
21
First, the plaintiffs’ counsel will verify by Monday, April 10, 2017, that her responses to the
22
defendant’s Rule 34 requests for production are complete and correct as of that date. See Fed. R.
23
Civ. P. 26(g)(1). The court reminded counsel that the plaintiffs have an ongoing obligation to
24
supplement their disclosures and responses under Rule 26(e).
25
Second, the court set forth the following briefing schedule for the parties’ objections to each
26
other’s document productions: (1) opening brief (limited to 10 double-spaced pages, the document
27
requests, and 10 pages of any additional material) due April 13, 2017); (2) opposition (same page

limits) due April 18, 2017, and the optional reply (limited to five double-spaced pages) due April
2
21, 2017. The filing time on all dates is no later than 5 p.m.
3
Third, the plaintiffs’ amended, verified interrogatory responses are due seven days after the
4
later of the court’s order on the plaintiffs’ objections to the defendant’s document production or
5
seven days after any additional court-ordered disclosures.
6
Fourth, the court authorized three depositions by the plaintiffs: (1) a Rule 30(b)(6) witness for
7
the property management company; (2) a percipient witness deposition for the witness from the
8
company; and (3) a percipient witness deposition from a contractor. The plaintiffs must conduct
9
the depositions after the April 17 settlement conference and no later than April 28, 2017. That

means scheduling the depositions now (to give fair notice).
Fifth, the plaintiffs withdrew their claim for damages for the sofas. The court authorized an
inspection of any property that the plaintiffs kept at a time and place that the parties will arrange.
13
Sixth, all fact discovery must be completed by April 28, 2017.
14
Seventh, given the parties’ need to complete fact discovery, the court extends the expert
15
deadlines as follows: (1) expert disclosures: May 19, 2017; (2) rebuttal disclosures: May 30, 2017;
16
and (3) expert discovery completion: June 9, 2017.
17
These deadlines do not affect any deadlines before the district court.
18
IT IS SO ORDERED.
