ORDER

THIS MATTER is before the Court on “Plaintiff’s Motion to Compel” (document #19)
and the parties’ briefs and exhibits.
The Court has carefully reviewed the parties’ arguments, the authorities and the record.
Plaintiff has not pled a pattern and practice discrimination claim. Defendant has fully responded
to Plaintiff’s discovery requests concerning Ms. Busgith, the decision maker in Plaintiff’s
termination. The Court finds that the additional discovery responses that Plaintiff seeks to compel
are not proportional to the needs of the case. Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(a). For those and the other reasons
stated in Defendant’s brief, Plaintiff’s Motion to Compel is denied.
The Clerk is directed to send copies of this Order to counsel for the parties, including but
not limited to moving counsel; and to the Honorable Richard L. Voorhees.
SO ORDERED.
Signed: April 18, 2017
