THERESA L. DOWLING,
Plaintiff,
v.
XCEL ENERGY,
Defendant.

MINUTE ORDER
Entered by Michael E. Hegarty, United States Magistrate Judge, on September 11, 2012.
Pending before the Court is Defendant’s Motion for Leave to Notice Plaintiff Theresa
Dowling’s Deposition at the Alfred A. Arraj United States Courthouse on September 25, 2012 at
10:00 a.m. [filed September 10, 2012; docket #49]. The Court is satisfied with Defendant’s effort
to obtain Plaintiff’s position on the relief requested prior to filing the present motion. See docket
#49-1. Pursuant to D.C. Colo. LCivR 7.1C, the Court decides the motion without a response from
Plaintiff.
Upon review of the record and in consideration of Defendant’s difficulties in communicating
with Plaintiff throughout this litigation, the Court finds that permitting Defendant to depose Plaintiff
at the Courthouse serves the interests of both parties. Therefore, pursuant to D.C. Colo. LCivR
30.3A, Defendant’s motion is granted. Defendant may notice the videotaped deposition of Plaintiff
at the Alfred A. Arraj Courthouse on September 25, 2012, at 10:00 a.m.
