UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JERMAINE PADILLA,

Plaintiff,

v.

JEFFREY BEARD, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:14-cv-1118 KJM CKD

ORDER

Pending before the court are plaintiff’s motion to terminate plaintiff’s deposition and 

defendants’ motion to compel plaintiff’s continued deposition and production of documents. 

Because oral argument is not of material assistance, this matter is submitted on the briefs. E.D. 

Cal. L.R. 230(g). Upon review of the documents in support and opposition, and good cause 

appearing therefor, THE COURT FINDS AND ORDERS AS FOLLOWS:

1. Plaintiff’s motion to terminate or limit plaintiff’s deposition (ECF No. 73) and 

defendant’s countermotion to compel plaintiff’s further deposition (ECF No. 74) are granted in 

part and denied in part. Further deposition of plaintiff is allowed, limited to three hours. The 

deposition shall be conducted at the federal courthouse, on a date coordinated with the court’s 

courtroom deputy, so as to allow court supervision of said deposition.

2. The motion to compel production of documents (ECF No. 74) is denied. See Clark v. 

Vega Wholesale, Inc., 181 F.R.D. 470, 472 (D. Nev. 1998); Fed. R. Civ. P. 45.
