Case No. 21-cv-02701-AGT
DISCOVERY ORDER

v.
SALESFORCE.COM, INC.,

Re: Dkt. No. 88

Defendant.
This order memorializes the rulings made on the record during this morning’s hearing
concerning the discovery disputes raised in the parties’ joint letter at Dkt. 88.
1. The dispute as to Salesforce’s Rog 7 is not ripe in light of GA Telesis’s forthcoming

12

second supplemental response. To the extent Salesforce takes issue with the sufficiency

13

of the supplemental response, the parties must meet and confer. If they still cannot

14

resolve their dispute, they may file a joint letter within seven days of the meet and confer.

15

2. The Court declines to compel GA Telesis to further supplement its response to

16

Salesforce’s Rog 12 at this time. Rog 12 is a contention interrogatory and discovery in

17

this case has just begun. GA Telesis must continue to meet its Rule 26(e) duty to

18

supplement.

19

3. Salesforce’s RFPs 5–7 and 30–37 are overbroad. The parties must further meet and

20

confer to narrow the scope of these RFPs consistent with the Court’s guidance. If they

21

cannot agree, the parties must file an updated joint letter by March 28, 2022.

22

4. GA Telesis may proceed with the depositions of current Salesforce employees Jenna

23

Hillard and Norman Gallagher, and former Salesforce employee Rick Zahn. Salesforce’s

24

request for a protective order is denied.

26

IT IS SO ORDERED.
