ORDER
Before the Court is the Motion to Compel [# 33]. On May 15, 2018, Plaintiff filed
its Motion to Compel seeking compliance with a subpoena requesting thirty-parties E.K.
Morley and E.K. Morley, PLLC produce documents related to settlement claims against
Morley. On May 16, 2018, the Court ordered third-parties E.K. Morley and E.K. Morley,
PLLC, respond to the Motion and cautioned about a potential conflict of interest of one
lawyer representing both an individual and a law firm [# 36]. The Court gave a deadline
to respond of May 29, 2018. As of July 19, 2018, neither E.K. Morley nor E.K. Morley,
PLLC have filed a response to the Court’s previous order.
Therefore, upon reviewing the Motion to Compel, the Court GRANTS the Motion
[# 33]. The Court ORDERS third-parties E.K. Morley and E.K. Morley, PLLC to produce
to Plaintiff all documents related to settlement of claims against Morley, including those
related to settlement of Brenda Livesay v. E.K. Morley, Henderson County Superior Court,
Case No. 13-CVS-1591, including documents pertaining to disposition of settlement
proceeds. E.K. Morley and E.K. Morley, PLLC shall have ten (10) days from the entry of
this Order to comply with the Court’s orders.
The Court DIRECTS Plaintiff to inform the Court if third-parties E.K. Morley and
E.K. Morley, PLLC do not comply. If the third-parties do not comply, the Court will
schedule a show cause hearing in order to determine whether to hold third-parties E.K.
Morley and E.K. Morley, PLLC in contempt.
