Rideout v. Allstate Insurance, Inc.

Filing 45

ORDER denying 30 Motion to Compel. Signed by Jane M Virden on 10/17/12. (ncb)

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF MISSISSIPPI
DELTA DIVISION

PAMELA RIDEOUT
VERSUS

PLAINTIFF
CIVIL ACTION NO. : 2:11CV222-MPM-JMV

ALLSTATE INSURANCE COMPANY

DEFENDANT

ORDER

Consistent with the court’s oral ruling during a telephonic hearing in this matter on this
date, Allstate’s motion to compel return of document(s) [# 30] is DENIED. It should be
reiterated that the court does not believe the instant motion is the appropriate vehicle for the
relief sought by Allstate, i.e., an order compelling the return of the original and all copies of a
document(s) Plaintiff obtained during her employ with Allstate and prior to the filing of this
lawsuit. However, to the extent that Plaintiff will seek to use the subject document(s) in this
lawsuit, the court will entertain a motion for protective order or any other appropriate request
under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.
SO ORDERED this 17th day of October, 2012.
