Plaintiff,

ANNA GATTI, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 15-cv-00798-HSG (DMR)

ORDER ON DISCOVERY MOTIONS

SEEKING ADMINISTRATIVE RELIEF

Re: Dkt. Nos. 497, 521, 522, 523

The court has received the following administrative motions for leave to file unilateral 

discovery letter briefs, filed by Defendant Almawave USA, Inc. (“Almawave”): Docket nos. 521, 

522, and 523. Exceptional circumstances support Almawave’s requests to file unilateral discovery 

letter briefs because Plaintiff has refused to participate in the court’s joint letter process. Plaintiff 

did not timely oppose Almawave’s administrative motions and did not refute Almawave’s 

representations about Plaintiff’s refusal to participate in the joint letter process. Accordingly, the 

court grants Almawave’s administrative motions. Almawave may file unilateral letter briefs that 

do not exceed two pages regarding each of the three disputes described in the administrative 

motions by March 31, 2016. Plaintiff’s opposition briefs may not exceed two pages and shall be 

filed by April 5, 2016.

On March 22, 2016, the court granted Defendant IQSystem, Inc. (“IQS”) leave to file a 

unilateral discovery letter brief regarding its motion to quash Plaintiff’s subpoena to third party 

Pike Energy Solutions, LLC. [Docket No. 512; see Docket No. 494 (IQS’s motion).] IQS’s letter 

brief was due by March 24, 2016. No such letter was filed. Accordingly, IQS’s motion to quash 

is denied.

Finally, in light of the court’s March 25, 2016 minute order regarding the deposition 

schedule, Almawave’s administrative motion for leave to file a unilateral discovery letter brief
