ENTERED BY MAGISTRATE JUDGE KRISTEN L. MIX
This matter is before the Court on Defendant Physician Health Partners’ Motion for
Protective Order [#33] (the “Motion”). On May 15, 2015, Plaintiff, who proceeds in this
matter as a pro se litigant, served his First Interrogatories Pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. Rule
33 and his Request for Production of Documents Pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. Rule 34. [#331, #33-2]. Plaintiff’s Amended Complaint was filed on June 10, 2015. Defendant Physician
Health Partners has not yet filed an answer or other response to the Amended Complaint
but states that it intends to file a motion to dismiss. A scheduling conference has not yet
been held in this matter. Plaintiff’s written discovery requests are therefore premature.
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Motion [#33] is GRANTED. Defendant Physician
Health Partners need not respond at this time to Plaintiff’s First Interrogatories Pursuant
to Fed. R. Civ. P. Rule 33 or to Plaintiff’s Request for Production of Documents Pursuant
to Fed. R. Civ. P. Rule 34. Pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(d)(1), no further discovery is
permitted in this matter until otherwise permitted by the Court.
