O'DONNELL v. PENNSYLVANIA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS et al

Filing 56

MEMORANDUM ORDER - Upon review of these requests for production, we believe that the Dfts observations and objections are well-taken. We will, however, ORDER that parties will confer regarding these requests for production, and endeavor to identify m ore narrowly tailored requests which can reasonably be honored by the Df ts on or before February 23, 2011. Finally, ODonnell alleges that she has not been provided with complete responses to interrogatories relating to affirmative defenses. In repl y, the Dfts claim that this motion is premature since the parties have not met and conferred to address these issues. Given the posture of this particular issue, IT IS ORDERED parties will confer and endeavor to resolve this matter without further li tigation on or before February 23, 2011. Finally, IT IS ORDERED that the parties be prepared to provide the Court withan update on the progress of these issues at the case management conference scheduled for February 18, 2011, at 11:00 a.m. In ligh t of these rulings, the Pltfs request for monetary sanctions is DENIED without prejudice to renewing this request if the Court find that the outstanding discovery issues are not satisfactorily resolved through the process outlined in this order.Signed by Magistrate Judge Martin C. Carlson on February 9, 2011. (kjn ) (Main Document 56 replaced on 2/9/2011) (kjn, ).
