Plaintiff,

AEDEC International, Inc., et al.,
Defendants.

CIVIL ACTION NO. 5:10-CV-255(MTT)

ORDER
This matter is before the Court on the Plaintiff’s Motion to Compel. (Doc. 48).
The Plaintiff seeks relief related to a surveillance video. While the Plaintiff properly
raises the issue, the Plaintiff seeks the wrong relief. Based on the current record, it
appears likely that the proper issue is one of spoliation of evidence and the appropriate
remedies and sanctions for that spoliation.
Accordingly, the Plaintiff’s Motion to Compel is denied. The Court will revisit the
issue when an appropriate record is before the Court. The Defendant’s request for fees
and costs is denied.
SO ORDERED, this 16th day of May, 2011.

MARC T. TREADWELL, JUDGE
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
