Plaintiffs,

14-cv-99-bbc

KOLBE & KOLBE MILLWORK CO., INC.,
and

Defendants,

FIREMAN’S FUND INSURANCE CO., INC. et al.,
Intervening Defendants.
____________________________________________________________________________________________
On June 17, 2015, the court held a telephonic hearing on two discovery motions (and a
related motion for leave to file a reply, dkt. 220, which the court granted).

All parties were

represented by counsel.
In discussion with counsel, the court GRANTED defendant’s motion (dkt. 207) to compel
discovery responses from the intervening insurance companies, but directed the parties promptly to
meet and confer in order to tighten and fine-tune the requests.
The court ended up GRANTING defendant’s motion (dkt. 226) to compel damage
disclosures by plaintiffs. Not later than June 26, 2015, plaintiffs must disclose its actual damages
calculations for the named class representative plaintiffs.

To account for these disclosures,

defendant’s deadline to disclose expert witness reports is extended two weeks to July 20, 2015.
The parties flagged some other related issues and concerns, but the court declined to rule on
the fly, instead directing counsel to meet, confer and then file motions seeking specific relief from
the court.

Entered this 18th day of June, 2015.
