The parties have agreed to waive the deposition limit set by the Federal Rules. The

either party may seek judicial intervention if, after meeting and conferring, the party 

believes the number of depositions to be excessive. 

Requests for admission are limited to ten (10) per side. Interrogatories are limited 

to twenty-five (25) per side. Requests for production of documents are not limited, but the 

Court cautions that they must be narrowly tailored.

C. ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION

The parties have submitted an ADR request for a settlement conference with 

Magistrate Judge Nathaniel Cousins and ADR staff recommended the same. This case is 

hereby referred to Magistrate Judge Cousins for a settlement conference to be completed 

within 90 to 120 days of May 15, 2015. The parties are directed to contact the chambers of 

Magistrate Judge Cousins to schedule this conference.
