ORDER
WILLIAMS, Magistrate Judge:
On June 12, 2012, the Court held a telephonic discovery dispute hearing in the abovecaptioned case. Appearing for Plaintiff: Michael Miles; for Defendants: Charles Reis. The following
summarizes the Court’s orders, which are explained in detail in the hearing transcripts.
•

Though the Plaintiff’s responses to interrogatories and requests for production were not
timely, they were returned to Defendant shortly after the parties informally discussed
their untimeliness. The Court will not deem any of Plaintiff’s objections to be waived
because of untimeliness.

•

Plaintiff’s objection to Defendant’s Requests for Production (other than No. 60 and No.
61): Overruled. Should the Plaintiff come into possession of any other responsive
documents, he is obliged to provide them.

•

Plaintiff’s objection to Interrogatory No. 16 is overruled. Plaintiff has 10 days (up to and
including 6/22/2012) to supplement his response to Interrogatory No. 16.
Plaintiff’s objection to Interrogatory No. 18 is overruled. Plaintiff has until 6/22/2012 to
supplement his response to Interrogatory No. 18 with information related to his
ironworking employment.

•

•

Regarding Plaintiff’s objections to disclosure of psychological history (RFP 61 and
Interrogatory No. 17), Plaintiff’s objections are sustained without prejudice.

•

Regarding Plaintiff’s objections to disclosure of physical injury / medical records (RFP
60), the objections are sustained without prejudice to Defendant to raise the issue at a
later time.

•

Plaintiff’s objections to Interrogatories 19 and 20 are overruled in part. Plaintiff will
provide employment application authorization for DK Construction Co. on or before
6/22/2012.
