UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

HENRY SCHEIN, INC.,

Plaintiff,

v.

JENNIFER COOK,

Defendant.

Case No. 16-cv-03166-JST 

ORDER REGARDING DISCOVERY 

DISPUTE

Re: Dkt. No. 26

On July 19, 2016, counsel for Plaintiff Henry Schein, Inc. filed a discovery letter brief 

pursuant to the undersigned’s Standing Order for All Civil Cases, 

http://cand.uscourts.gov/filelibrary/1156/Civil-Standing-Order-JST-07.08.15.pdf. The letter 

describes a dispute Schein is having regarding enforcement of a subpoena directed to third party 

Patterson Dental Supply, Inc. 

Although the letter states Patterson’s position regarding the dispute, such that Patterson has 

submitted itself to the Court’s jurisdiction to decide the dispute, counsel for Patterson has not yet 

entered an appearance in the action. It is clear from Exhibit B to the letter that Patterson is 

represented by counsel. 

Patterson is ordered to enter an appearance by July 21, 2016 at 5:00 p.m., after which the 

Court will issue a further order regarding the discovery dispute letter. The undersigned may 

decide the dispute, but may also refer it to a magistrate. For scheduling purposes, the parties 

should be aware that the Court may also conduct an in-person hearing regarding the dispute on 

Monday, July 25, 2016 at 9:00 a.m. It is extremely unlikely that the Court will require a noticed 

motion, as Patterson requests.
