Dear Counsel:
Pending before this Court is a discovery dispute raised by Plaintiff/Relators, Wendy Bahnsen
and Carolina Fuentes (“Relators”) concerning an allegedly deficient production of documents by
Defendant, Boston Scientific Neuromodulation Corporation (“Boston Scientific”).1 After review of
the parties’ joint submission, the Court has the following questions:
1) When were Relators or their counsel initially informed about the “Zirmed” database?
2) When were Relators or their counsel initially informed about the Medisoft database?
3) When were Relators or their counsel initially informed about the Dataflo database?
4) Did Defense counsel provide an enclosure letter (or email) or written document
response for the March 13, 2015 production of the “claims data” spreadsheet? If so,
provide a copy with your response.
Counsel for the parties shall file their respective written responses (maximum three pages each) to
these questions no later than 5:00 p.m. on September 9, 2016. For each response, counsel shall
provide pinpoint citations to the docket or attach a copy of the proofs upon which they rely to support
their respective client’s position.
