MENTOR CAPITAL, INC. et al.,
District Judge Jill Parrish
Defendants.
Magistrate Judge Brooke Wells
Previously the court granted Counter-claim Defendant Scott Van Rixel’s Motion to
Quash. 1 In that order the court stated “When the question regarding jurisdiction is resolved
Mentor may move the court to extend discovery as to Van Rixel.” 2 On August 3, 2017, Judge
Parrish entered an order resolving the questions of jurisdiction raised by Van Rixel. 3 Mentor
now moves to lift the temporary stay of discovery and extend the discovery cut-off date as to
Van Rixel. In addition, Mentor asks the court to reinstate the discovery requests served on Van
Rixel in April 2017 so as to “avoid any further waste of time.” 4
The court has carefully considered the motion, the history of this case, the prior orders
entered and finding good cause shown GRANTS the Motion to Extend Discovery and Lift the
Stay.
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the temporary stay of discovery as to Mr. Van Rixel is
lifted and the discovery requests served in April 2017 are reinstated. Mr. Van Rixel is given
fourteen (14) days from the date of this order to respond to the discovery request.
