UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK
ANNAMARIE TROMBETTA,
Plaintiff,

-v-

CIVIL ACTION NO.: 18 Civ. 993 (RA) (SLC)

NORB NOVOCIN, et al.,
Defendants.

ORDER

SARAH L. CAVE, United States Magistrate Judge.
The Court is in receipt of pro se Plaintiff Annamarie Trombetta’s (“Ms. Trombetta”) letter
accusing Defendants’ counsel of “a pattern of willful misinformation, intimidation and
harassment[,]” (ECF No. 292), and Defendant WorthPoint Corporation’s response letter (ECF
No. 293).

The Court has reviewed Ms. Trombetta’s assertions and disagrees with her

characterizations. Ms. Trombetta having notified Defendants of the witnesses she might call at
trial, there is nothing improper in Defendants’ counsel investigating the witnesses’ correct
addresses and serving them with notices of depositions at those addresses. It also appears that,
once Defendants’ counsel knew Ms. Trombetta no longer planned to call one of the witnesses,
they advised the witness that his appearance at his deposition was no longer needed, which was
appropriate and courteous. Accordingly, Ms. Trombetta’s request to “admonish” Defendants’
counsel is DENIED.
Ms. Trombetta is reminded, for the third time, that she must meet and confer with
Defendants regarding any pending discovery disputes prior to requesting judicial intervention.
(See ECF Nos. 279; 286).
