MEMORANDUM
AND ORDER

This matter is before the court on the defendants’ Motion for Leave to Take
Deposition of the Plaintiff (Filing No. 26). The plaintiff is currently incarcerated at
the Sarpy County Jail in Papillion, Nebraska.
Rule 30(a)(2)(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure states that a party must
obtain leave of the court to depose a person confined in prison. The defendants
request the deposition for the purpose of discovery. The plaintiff did not oppose the
motion, and it appears the deposition is consistent with Rule 26(b)(2) of the Federal
Rules of Civil Procedure.
IT IS ORDERED that:
1.
The defendants’ Motion for Leave to Take Deposition (Filing No. 26) is
granted. The deposition will occur at a date and time agreeable to the penal facility

where the plaintiff is housed. The location of the deposition will be a place agreeable
to the administration of that penal facility.
2.
The plaintiff is ordered to attend the deposition as scheduled, and must
cooperate fully with the deposition process to the extent required by law.
DATED this 20th day of May, 2015.
BY THE COURT:
s/ John M. Gerrard
United States District Judge
