FOR THE DISTRICT OF NEBRASKA

MARCUS WITCHET,
Plaintiff,
v.
UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD COMPANY,

CASE NO. 8:18-cv-00187
ORDER TO COMPLY WITH
SUBPOENA

Defendant.

Defendant Union Pacific Railroad Company (“Defendant”) has filed an unopposed
Motion for an Order requiring Dr. Syed F. Zaidi to comply with a subpoena and appear
for a deposition on June 27, 2019. (Filing No. 72.) The Court finds that Dr. Zaidi has
previously failed to comply with three separate subpoenas issued by the Defendant. As
a result of Dr. Zaidi’s failure to appear for his deposition, Defendant has incurred hundreds
of dollars in cancellation fees from the court reporter, an amount that will likely grow.
IT IS ORDERED that Defendant’s Unopposed Motion (Filing No.72) is granted. If
Dr. Zaidi fails to comply with the attached subpoena, Defendant may seek contempt
sanctions against Dr. Zaidi, including reimbursement for all costs and fees incurred as a
result of Dr. Zaidi’s previous cancellations. The Court hereby orders Dr. Zaidi to comply
with the subpoena and appear for a deposition on June 27, 2019.
Dated this 10th day of June, 2019.
BY THE COURT:
