REASONS WHY THE REMAINING DISCOVERY HAS NOT BEEN COMPLETED.
One of the attorneys representing Plaintiffs, Federico C. Sayre, has two trials in other cases
28
STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER TO EXTEND DISCOVERY – THIRD REQUEST - 5
Case 2:17-cv-01946-JCM-PAL Document 81 Filed 08/13/18 Page 6 of 7
1
during the current discovery period. Mr. Sayre asked Defendants to stipulate to a thirty day extension
2
of the discovery deadline, to which Defendants agreed. Officer Lopera’s counsel also proposed that the
3
extension be for forty-five days in case Mr. Sayre’s trials were to go longer than anticipated or in the
4
event any other unforeseen scheduling issues were to arise.
5
On Tuesday, August 7, 2018, Plaintiffs’ counsel received from Craig Anderson, counsel for
6
Defendant Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, the report of the Tactical Review Board, Force
7
Investigation Report, and Critical Incident Review Process report. Plaintiffs would like to take the
8
depositions of 1) Assistant Sheriff Tim Kelly, Chair; 2) Captain John Pelletier, Board Member; 3)
9
Sergeant Ryan Evans, Tactical Expert; 4) Sergeant Jose Hernandez Peer Member; and 5) Detective
10
Travis Ivie, Peer Member.
11
The LVMPD Defendants have agree to three additional depositions including (1) Tim Kelly,
12
(2) Ryan Evans, and (3) Jose Hernandez. These depositions will be limited to recently produced
13
documents. The LVMPD Defendants do not agree to five additional defendants. However, the LVMPD
14
Defendants remain open to discussing additional depositions after the three depositions have been
15
taken.
