During his deposition, Plaintiff repeatedly refused to answer questions, resting on an
assertion of his Fifth Amendment protection against self-incrimination. On September 3, 2014, the
court ordered that Plaintiff resubmit to a deposition after the court had an opportunity to adjudicate
the issue. To that end, the court required Plaintiff’s counsel to file a detailed motion for a protective
order regarding any assertion by Plaintiff of his Fifth Amendment rights in this case. See Docket
No. 51. Plaintiff was to have filed the motion by September 12, 2014. To date, Plaintiff has not
filed the motion.
Accordingly, the court ORDERS Plaintiff to respond by September 19, 2014 and explain
why Plaintiff did not file the motion. If Plaintiff does not respond by September 19, 2014 to this
order to show cause, Plaintiff will be deemed to have withdrawn his assertion of Fifth Amendment
privilege in this case.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
