UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

COREY LAMAR SMITH, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

v.

ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:14-cv-00060-LJO-SAB

ORDER REGARDING DISCOVERY

On October 10, 2014, the Court conducted a scheduling conference in the related matter 

of Arthur Duane Jackson, et al., v. State of California, et al., Case No. 1:13-cv-01055-LJO-SAB. 

During the scheduling conference, the parties discussed a discovery plan whereby certain 

procedures would govern discovery in this matter and in the related Jackson case. The parties 

sought to set procedures to avoid the need to conduct duplicative discovery in both cases. 

However, the parties were unable to agree to a discovery plan during the scheduling conference. 

Accordingly, the Court will order the parties to meet and confer to propose a discovery plan in 

both cases.

Based upon the foregoing, it is HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. On or before November 7, 2014, the parties shall meet and confer regarding a 

discovery plan in this case and in the related case of Arthur Duane Jackson, et al., 

v. State of California, et al., Case No. 1:13-cv-01055-LJO-SAB.

regarding the discovery plan which the parties could not jointly agree to, for the 

Court’s consideration;

4. If any additional procedures are submitted by a party, any party opposing such 

procedures may submit a response on or before November 21, 2014;

5. On December 5, 2014, the Court shall conduct a hearing on the discovery plan. 

Depending on the submissions by the parties, the Court may require the parties to 

appear at the hearing in person; and

submitted to the Court via e-mail at saborders@caed.uscourts.gov.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
