ORDER1
This matter comes before the Court on Plaintiff Larry Harrington's Motion to
Compel Discovery Responses (Doc. #44) filed on December 2, 2015. Five days later,
the Court held a preliminary pretrial conference at which time the parties discussed that
motion. (Doc. #45). Based on the parties' arguments, the Court ordered Defendants to
amend their interrogatory responses on or before December 28, 2015. The Court then
issued a written order on December 8, 2015, denying Plaintiff's motion to compel. (Doc.
#47). The next day, the parties called the undersigned because Plaintiff's motion to
compel also raised issues that neither side discussed at the preliminary pretrial
conference. The undersigned thus vacated the order denying the motion to compel (Doc.
#48) and set a hearing on December 15, 2015 (Doc. #49).

Having now reviewed Plaintiff's motion to compel in detail, the Court finds that its
calendar for December 15, 2015, will not afford sufficient time to explore the parties'
arguments fully and rule accordingly.
Accordingly, it is now
ORDERED:
(1) The Clerk shall CANCEL the hearing set for December 15, 2015, at 3:30 p.m.
before the undersigned.
(2) Plaintiff's Motion to Compel Discovery Responses (Doc. #44) is REFERRED to
the Honorable Mac McCoy.
(3) Defendants Roundpoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation and Multibank 2010SFR Venture, LLC shall respond to Plaintiff's Motion to Compel Discovery
Responses (Doc. #44) on or before December 28, 2015.
(4) Defendants Roundpoint Mortgage Servicing Corporation and Multibank 2010SFR Venture, LLC shall comply with the Court’s directive at the preliminary
pretrial conference and amend its interrogatory responses on or before
December 28, 2015.
DONE and ORDERED in Fort Myers, Florida this 10th day of December, 2015.
