I am counsel representing Defendant. On December 23, 2006 I mailed Defendant's First Interrogatories and Defendant's First Request for Production of Documents to Plaintiff. On February 15, 2006 I sent a request by fax and email for Plaintiff's responses to discovery by Friday, February 24, 2006 or in the alternative for a conference pursuant to LR 37.1. Plaintiff counsel Mr. McKinley called to advise that he would be withdrawing or substituted. Plaintiff later called to indicate that the substitution should be accomplished by Friday, February 17, 2006. There has been no substitution and counsel for Plaintiff has not called to confer re: discovery. Defendant requests Sanctions per FRCP 37(a)(4), for time expended in contacting Plaintiff counsel re: responses, for time, in drafting Defendant's Motion to Compel and Motion to Expedite and associated documents, of 2.5 hours at $265/hour for a total of $662.50. Defendant requests that Plaintiff be required to fully respond to Defendant's Discovery by Wednesday, March 8, 2006. I declare that the foregoing is true and correct. Signed at Kennewick, Washington, this 21st day of February, 2006. /s/ FLOYD E. IVEY ______________________ Floyd E. Ivey
