ORDER
Pending before the Court is Plaintiff’s Motion for Discovery [# 5]. Plaintiff
brought this case is state court asserting a number claims. Defendants then
removed the case to this Court and moved to dismiss two of the claims. Plaintiff
now moves for early discovery pursuant to Local Rule 16.1, which provides that
where “a party believes that early court sanctioned discovery is warranted, such
party may file a motion for leave to take early discovery therein showing good
cause.” LCvR 16.1(F). A party requesting early discovery need not file a
supporting memorandum as required for most motions. Id. Here, Plaintiff has
shown good cause for allowing early discovery. Accordingly, the Court
GRANTS the Plaintiff’s Motion for Discovery [# 5]. The Court DIRECTS the
parties follows:
(1)
Defendants shall respond to Plaintiff’s First Request for Production of
Documents to Defendant Scott Andrews and Defendant International
Legwear Group, Inc. within forty-five (45) days of the entry of this
Order.
(2)
Defendants shall file their Answer to the Complaint within fourteen
(14) days of the entry of this Order.
(3)
The parties shall conduct the Initial Attorney’s Conference within
twenty (20) days of the Defendants filing their Answer. The parties
shall have seven (7) days to complete and file the Certificate of Initial
Attorney’s Conference as required by Local Rule 16.1(B).
