shall not, absent substantial justification, be permitted to use evidence or testimony not disclosed

at any hearing or at the time of trial. In addition, the Court may impose sanctions as permitted by

Fed. R. Civ. P. 37(c).

2. Any party, through any expert designated, shall in accordance with Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(a)(2)(C)

and Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(e), supplement any of its expert reports regarding evidence intended solely to

contradict or rebut evidence on the same subject matter identified in an expert report submitted by

another party. Any such supplemental reports are due on or before February 15, 2008.

3. All expert discovery shall be completed on or before February 29, 2008. “Completed”

means that all discovery under Rules 30-36 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure must be initiated a

sufficient period of time in advance of the cut-off date, so that it may be completed by the cut-off date,

taking into account the times for services, notice, and response as set forth in the Federal Rules of Civil

Procedure. All discovery motions must be filed within 30 days of the service of an objection, answer or

response which becomes the subject of dispute or the passage of a discovery due date without response

or production, and only after counsel have met and conferred and have reached impasse with regard to

the particular issue.

All other dates set forth in this Court’s Case Management Conference Order [Doc. No. 19

and as modified in Doc. No. 23] shall remain in effect, including the requirement that all motions, other

than motions to amend or join parties, or motions in limine, shall be FILED on or before February 22,

2008. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
