UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MERCEDES ALVAREZ, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

v.

FARMERS INSURANCE EXCHANGE,

Defendant.

Case No. 14-cv-00574-WHO 

ORDER REGARDING DOCUMENTS 

FROM FARMERS' DECLARANTS

Re: Dkt. No. 138

In the latest discovery dispute between these parties, plaintiffs seek documents in an 

expedited fashion concerning eighteen putative class members from whom defendant obtained 

declarations. Dkt. No. 138. Seventeen of the eighteen declarants had not previously been 

disclosed by defendants. It is unclear how material the declarations will be in the determination of 

the motion for class certification, which is currently scheduled for hearing on December 2, 2015, 

but it seems obvious that plaintiffs should have access to the requested records so that the record 

before the Court is complete by the time of the hearing.

Plaintiffs’ request is GRANTED. Defendant shall disclose the records listed on page 3 of 

Joint Statement no later than November 5, 2015. Plaintiffs may also file a five page supplemental 

memorandum no later than November 18, 2015 in the event that they are unable to address 

sufficiently the evidence pertaining to the undisclosed declarants. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: October 29, 2015
