Case No. 4:20 CV 270 CDP

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
This matter is before me on three discovery motions recently filed in this
case. Because I believe expeditious resolution of these issues is warranted, I will
set an immediate videoconference hearing on all pending motions. No further
briefing is permitted. Counsel should be prepared to discuss all current discovery
disputes at the hearing and also are required to again meet and confer in advance to
attempt to resolve as many issues as possible. This requires counsel to return
phone calls. After reviewing the motions, it is apparent to the Court that many of
these disputes could and should be easily resolved if counsel actually spoke to one
another.
Accordingly,

Case: 4:20-cv-00270-CDP Doc. #: 101 Filed: 11/19/20 Page: 2 of 2 PageID #: 304
