On November 20, 2014, this Court ordered the City of Fresno to produce the following 

documents to Plaintiffs by January 9, 2015:

1. Internal affairs documents pertaining to complaints and discipline records of 

Officer Avila. To the extent there is an applicable privilege asserted with regard to 

any documents, an updated privilege log will be produced;

2. Documents such as fitness for duty examinations and psychological evaluations of 

Officer Avila that are in the City Defendants' possession pertaining to prior 

shootings in which Officer Avila was involved – including the June 2012 shooting 

which is the subject of this suit. This document production shall not include 

documents regarding any shooting subsequent to June 2012 in which Officer Avila 

was involved; and

3. Disability records or claims of Officer Avila in the possession of the City –

including the June 2012 shooting which is the subject of this suit. This document 

production shall not include documents regarding any shooting subsequent to June 

2012 in which Officer Avila was involved.

The Fresno Defendants produced voluminous responsive documents to Plaintiffs on January 9, 

2015, and Plaintiffs received them on January 12, 2015. Defendants are still searching for more 

responsive documents, and the parties agree that an updated privilege log, if any, may be produced 

with the final production of documents. Plaintiffs’ counsel will be in an eight week wrongful death 

trial, M.H. v. County of Alameda, et al., N.D. Ca. Case No. C-11-2868 JST (LB), and do not believe 

they will have time to complete their review within one week of the final production of documents. 

Plaintiffs’ counsel could complete their review and submit the joint status report to the Court within 

three weeks of Defendants’ final production of documents.

The parties therefore stipulate and agree:

1) Defendants may complete their production of documents and produce any privilege 

log to Plaintiffs no later than February 6, 2015;

2) Plaintiffs will complete their review of the documents and the parties will submit 

the joint status report to the Court no later than February 27, 2015;

3) The Court shall set a further hearing after reviewing the parties’ joint status report. 

The Court in the M.H. case does not have trial on Fridays, so Plaintiffs’ counsel 

would be available for a hearing any Friday in March 2015.
