UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JAMES ELLIS JOHNSON,

Plaintiff,

v.

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Defendant.

Case No. 13-cv-02405-JD 

SUPPLEMENTAL DISCOVERY 

ORDER

Re: Dkt. Nos. 263, 264, 266

The United States has represented to the Court that it cannot perform electronic searches of 

the VA police journal entry files due to limitations of that system. Dkt. No. 264 at 1-2. Each 

day’s entry must be manually printed and reviewed, and so the United States requests relief from 

the Court’s Order directing it to produce all journal entries for the period October 2011 through 

July 2012. 

If Mr. Johnson still wants discovery of pertinent VA police journal entry records, he 

should provide the United States with a list of dates of his VA medical center visits in the period 

October 2011 through July 2012. The United States will produce the records for all of those dates. 

If there is a date that Mr. Johnson is not certain of, or which does not retrieve a record, the United 

States should check the records a week before and a week after the requested date, to attempt to 

find the relevant record. Only the relevant records need to be produced.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: March 21, 2016
