SAN FRANCISCO DIVISION 

ALFRED LAM, et al., 

Plaintiffs, 

v. 

THE CITY & COUNTY OF SAN 

FRANCISCO, et al., 

Defendants. 

Case No. 4:10-cv-04641-PJH (LB) 

ORDER REGARDING OUTSTANDING 

DISCOVERY DISPUTES 

[Re: ECF Nos. 148, 149, 150, 151, 152] 

The court held a discovery hearing on August 20, 2015 and issues this order to memorialize 

the matters discussed. 

The parties must comply with the court’s joint letter-brief procedures. As the court said in its 

order at ECF No. 147, the only exception is that if the court orders something (such as appearing 

at a deposition or responding to a discovery request), and a party fails to comply with that order, 

the other party may file a one-page letter brief to inform the court of the failure to comply with the 

order. It must be filed under the Civil Events category of “Motions and Related Filings > Motions 

– General > Discovery Letter Brief.” (Not one of the parties’ letters was filed properly.) The 

following are the rulings on the parties’ disputes. 

ECF No. 148: The court terminates this brief as moot because it was superseded by ECF No. 

149.
