UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF KANSAS
ANTHONY M. SMITH,
Plaintiff,
v.

Case No. 13-2605-CM

THE HILLSHIRE BRANDS COMPANY,
Defendant.

ORDER
On September 4, 2014, the court granted the plaintiff’s unopposed motion for an order
directing the Kansas Human Rights Commission (“KHRC”) to provide records pertaining
to KHRC Case No. 34103-11 (EEOC Charge No. 28D-1010-00977), styled “Smith v.
Caravan” (ECF doc. 61). The court ordered the KHRC to submit for in camera review any
portion of the investigative file which it believed to be of a deliberative or conciliatory
nature, or attorney work product of the KHRC’s legal staff.
The court has reviewed the documents submitted by the KHRC and finds that all of
the documents submitted are of a deliberative or conciliatory nature, or attorney work
product and, therefore, are not discoverable.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated September 24, 2014, at Kansas City, Kansas.
