Case No. MC17-0037RSL
ORDER DENYING MOTION TO
COMPEL

12
13

This matter comes before the Court on Local 134, IBEW’s “Motion to Compel

14

Compliance with Subpoena.” Dkt. # 1. Plaintiff seeks to compel compliance with a subpoena

15

issued by an arbitrator in Illinois. The subpoena did not specify a return date, instead stating that

16

the documents must be delivered at Apollo Video Technology’s “earliest convenience.” Dkt.

17

# 1-1 at 1. Only twenty-one days passed between the date the subpoena was mailed to Apollo

18

and the date this motion was filed.

19

More fundamentally, there is no indication that Apollo was served with this motion or

20

otherwise given an opportunity to respond to the requested relief. The motion to compel is

21

therefore DENIED without prejudice to a second request with proper notice to defendant.
