‘warning’?” Cry responded “There is no indication that plaintiff

has heeded my advice.”

Defendant must supplement his answer by explaining the

degree of care he warned plaintiff to take in completing such a

form and what consequences would befall plaintiff if he did not

comply.

 Plaintiff’s December 16, 2004, motion to compel is granted

in part and denied in part.

So ordered.
