Civil Action No. 16-10812
Honorable John Corbett O’Meara

G4S SECURE SOLUTIONS (USA), INC.
and KEVIN BAKER,
Defendants.

ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANT G4S SECURE SOLUTIONS (USA) INC.’S
MOTION TO COMPEL [13]
Before the Court is a Motion to Compel responses to its First Set of Interrogatories and
Requests for Production of Documents, filed by Defendant G4S Secure Solutions (USA), Inc.
(“G4S”) on September 14, 2016. [13]. Plaintiff Denise Pollington has not filed a response.
On April 25, 2016, G4S served Pollington with its First Set of Interrogatories and
Requests for Production of Documents. [Id. at 5]. Pollington failed to respond to G4S’s written
discovery requests by the May 28, 2016 deadline, and has failed to meet other agreed-upon
deadlines for production of the discovery. [Id. at 5-6]. This apparently owes to the death of
Plaintiff’s counsel’s mother, and related personal matters [Id.].
In its instant motion, G4S requests an order from the Court compelling Pollington to
serve G4S with her responses to its First Set of Interrogatories and Requests for Production of
Documents, pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P 37 and E.D. Mich L.R. 7.1 and 37.1. [Id. at 1, 8-9].
On September 16, 2016, the Court held a telephonic conference with counsel, and it was
agreed that Pollington could have until September 26, 2016, to produce the requested discovery.
Counsel also agreed to reschedule Pollington’s deposition, which is necessary to give G4S time
to review Pollington’s discovery responses.
Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that Defendant G4S’s Motion to Compel [13] is
GRANTED. Pollington shall serve G4S with her responses to its First Set of Interrogatories and
Requests for Production by September 26, 2016.
Counsel and the parties shall work
cooperatively to reschedule Pollington’s deposition.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Dated: September 16, 2016
