No. C-04-02000 CW (EDL)

MOTION TO COMPEL (DOCKET

requests for admissions, requests for production of documents and interrogatories. O2 Micro did not

file an opposition to this motion and, when contacted by the Court regarding its failure to do so, did

not return the Court’s call with a substantive response. In addition, the motion referenced O2

Micro’s agreement to supplement its discovery responses by July 28, 2006. Accordingly, the Court

vacated the August 22, 2006 hearing on the motion and required the parties to file a joint statement

regarding the status of this dispute. 

On August 22, 2006, the parties filed their joint statement. O2 Micro acknowledged that it

The Court grants the unopposed motion to compel. O2 Micro shall supplement its discovery

responses to all of the discovery requests at issue in the motion no later than August 28, 2006. If

MPS and ASMC believe in good faith that O2 Micro’s discovery responses are still deficient, they
