IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

EDWIN DURAND, et al.,

Plaintiffs, No. CIV S-09-2038 JAM KJM PS

vs.

CANDICE STEPHENSON, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

Plaintiffs’ motion to compel came on regularly for hearing April 28, 2010. 

Plaintiff Madelaine Durand appeared in propria persona. Glenn Peterson appeared for

defendants. Upon review of the documents in support and opposition, upon hearing the

arguments of plaintiffs and counsel, and good cause appearing therefor, THE COURT FINDS

AND ORDERS AS FOLLOWS:

1. The motion to compel the first set of discovery propounded by plaintiffs is

moot. Any dispute regarding discovery propounded on April 2, 2010 is unripe. The motion to

compel responses to the second set of interrogatories and production of documents accordingly is

denied without prejudice.

2. The parties have stipulated that the deposition of defendant Strauch shall take

place on May 3, 2010 in Roseville, California. The parties may contact the courtroom deputy for

the undersigned to arrange for a telephonic conference to resolve any disputes arising during the

deposition.

3. Upon review of the transcript of the deposition of defendant Stephenson, the

court finds the broad prospective relief requested by plaintiffs regarding the conduct of defense

counsel is not warranted. Moreover, plaintiffs have not identified specific questions posed at the

deposition that were not answered, or for which the responses are in dispute. The motion to

compel further deposition of defendant Stephenson is denied.

DATED: April 29, 2010.
