Plaintiff,
v.
SOUTHERN TIER EXPRESS, INC., a New

Case No. 2:15-cv-01219-APG-PAL
ORDER GRANTING MOTION IN
LIMINE NO. 11 (BIOMECHANICS)
(ECF No. 86)

Defendants.

11

Plaintiff Roderick Wise moves to exclude any reference to biomechanics. ECF No. 86.

12

Southern Tier agrees, and points out that Wise should likewise be precluded from offering any

13

such references because his experts have no expertise in this area. ECF No. 105. This indicates

14

that the parties’ lawyers did not conduct a proper “meet-and-confer” before filing this motion, as I

15

ordered them to. ECF No. 76. Had they truly conferred about this issue, they would have realized

16

there is no real dispute and they could have submitted a stipulation on this issue. Instead, they

17

wasted my limited resources by having to review a non-issue, despite my prior admonition. Id.

18

Nevertheless, Wise’s motion in limine (ECF No. 86) is GRANTED.

19

DATED this 10th day of July, 2017.
