Phelps, Sr., and Westboro Baptist Church (collectively, "Defendants"), respectfully submit this supplement to their Status Report, as follows: a. Whether discovery has been completed. Defendants clarify that Defendants have completed answering the discovery requests sent by Plaintiff to Defendants, except that Defendants continue to supplement the documents provided in response to Plaintiff's request for production of documents, pursuant to the governing rules. Defendants are not saying that Plaintiff has completed discovery.

undersigned counsel asked Plaintiff's counsel Craig Trebilcock to assist in obtaining all medical records from Plaintiff's doctors that have not already been produced to Defendants (the last production date having been January 2007), in the hopes of obviating the need for Defendants to seek such records by subpoena, and Mr. Trebilcock agreed to provide such assistance. Additionally, Defendant Fred Phelps and Defendant Westboro Baptist Church each served upon Plaintiff a separate set of Requests for Admission on August 13, 2007, and Plaintiff's response is pending .
