ORDER

DENISE COTE, District Judge:
An Order of January 21, 2021 directed attorney-defendant
Edward Feldman to disclose by Monday, January 25 whether he had
already produced to the plaintiffs all material in his
possession responsive to the plaintiffs’ request for Feldman’s
communications with Michael Sanford from December 29, 2015 to
July 11, 2017.

The Order further stated that if Feldman had

withheld from production any communications because he contended
that they were privileged or irrelevant, he must state so
clearly.
In a letter of January 25, Feldman stated that, in
connection with his deposition of June 22, 2017, he had already
produced all responsive documents to the plaintiffs.

On the

same day, the plaintiffs submitted a letter stating that
Feldman’s statement was incorrect and attaching an email of June

22, 2017 from Feldman to the plaintiffs’ attorney in which
Feldman writes that he excluded from production certain
communications between himself and Sanford that were privileged.
It is hereby
ORDERED that a conference to resolve this dispute is
scheduled for Wednesday, January 27, 2021 at 2:00pm.
Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the conference will
be held telephonically.

The parties shall use the following
