King v. G4S Secure Solutions (USA) Inc et al

Filing 64

Memorandum Opinion and Order. Defendant's Motion for a Protective Order (ECF # 58 ) is GRANTED IN PART and DENIED IN PART as follows: (1) Discovery is limited to employees who were not members of the union. As Plaintiff has demon strated that none of the named Plaintiffs are members of the union, no preemption issues arise. (2) Plaintiff may pursue discovery of non-union G4S employees assigned to GM from the beginning of the contract, January 1, 2012, who were terminated from employment for any reason between January 2012 and January 30, 2018. Defendant will also provide a list of the nonunion G4S employees who were employed by G4S on January 31, 2018. Defendant's counsel has agreed that a search for this informatio n would not be unduly burdensome. (3) Discovery will not be limited to G4S employees assigned to GM only in Ohio. In accordance with the limitations listed in points 1 and 2 above, discovery may be pursued relative to non-union G4S employees assigned to GM in any state. IT IS SO ORDERED. Judge Donald C. Nugent on 6/12/2019. (M,S)
