OPINION AND ORDER
This matter is before the Court on a Motion to Compel and Extend Discovery [DE 86], filed
by Plaintiff on May 30, 2014. No response has been filed, and the time to do so has passed. Plaintiff
represents that interrogatories he served on Defendants Lane, Widup, and Cavanaugh on September
16, 2013, have gone unanswered. Plaintiff asks that Defendants be compelled to respond to these
interrogatories and that the discovery deadline be extended.
Finding the matter well taken, the Court GRANTS in part and DENIES as moot in part
the Motion to Compel and Extend Discovery [DE 86]. The Court grants the motion insofar as it
seeks an order compelling Defendants Lane, Widup, and Cavanaugh to serve their responses to
Plaintiff’s interrogatories and accordingly ORDERS those Defendants to serve Plaintiff with their
responses by August 6, 2014. The Court denies the motion as moot insofar as it seeks an extension
of the discovery deadline since the deadline was extended to August 29, 2014, in a June 16, 2014,
minute entry.
SO ORDERED this 23rd day of July, 2014.
