IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

MONIQUE GUERRERO, et al., CASE NO. CV F 06-1539 LJO SMS

Plaintiffs, ORDER ON VOIR DIRE QUESTIONS

vs.

GENERAL MOTORS CORP.,

et al.,

Defendants.

 /

The Court read and reviewed Defendant Takata Seat Belt, Inc.’s (“Takata’s”) proposed voir dire

questions (Doc. 167). Takata proposed twelve (12) questions for this Court to ask during its voir dire

of the prospective jury panel. Neither Plaintiffs nor Defendant General Motors Corporation (“GM”)

submitted proposed voir dire questions. Having considered Takata’s request, this Court ORDERS as

follows:

1. The Court will inquire on the issue of sympathy, the subject of Tataka’s proposed

question number one (1);

2. The Court will ask Takata’s proposed questions 3, 5, and 12 as proposed; 

3. The Court will not ask Takata’s proposed questions 2, 4, 6-11, as they are intended to

argue the case; and 

4. Plaintiffs and GM are precluded from submitting voir dire questions for the Court to

ask, as the deadline for submission of voir dire questions passed. (Pretrial Order, ¶ V).

IT IS SO ORDERED.
