No. 3-11-0399

ORDER
Pursuant to the orders entered July 27, 2012 (Docket Entry Nos. 44 and 49), counsel for the
parties called the Court on August 20, 2012, at which time the following matters were addressed:
1.

The plaintiffs supplemented their discovery responses in compliance with the order

entered July 27, 2012 (Docket Entry No. 47). However, defendants' counsel raised two issues. The
first was the defendants' request for additional years of income tax returns in addition to the 20062008 tax returns. Plaintiffs' counsel represented that the plaintiff would sign a release that would
be provided to defendants' counsel to obtain those returns.
The second issue was that the defendants' request for additional specificity in the plaintiffs'
response to interrogatory #2. Specifically, the defendants requested that the plaintiffs provide
additional details on the knowledge of the potential liability witnesses and that the plaintiffs serve
a list of the damages witnesses whom the plaintiffs expect to testify at trial 120 days prior to trial.
Defendants' counsel explained that the additional information would allow them to determine what
liability experts needed to be deposed and advance notice of damages experts would allow the
defendants to take their depositions before trial as necessary.
2.

Counsel for the parties reached agreement on both issues and shall submit an agreed

order reflecting their agreement.

3.

Counsel shall also confer with each other and with Ms. Jeanne Cox, Courtroom

Deputy, at 615-736-5164, to schedule another telephone conference call with the Court and include
that date in the parties' agreed order.
The Court notes that Mr. Chandler is not listed as counsel of record on the docket in this case.
If he wants to receive copies of orders entered in this case, he shall file a notice of entry of
appearance.
The Clerk is directed to email a copy of this order to John W. Chandler, Jr. at
[e-mail].
It is so ORDERED.
