ORDER

On September 29, 2010, the assigned District Judge, the Honorable Neil V.

Wake, found that Defendant Art Gomez was served personally with a subpoena to appear

before a court reporter for his deposition on September 21, 2010 and that he failed to appear

for that deposition. (Doc. 24) Judge Wake granted Plaintiff’s Motion for Issuance of Civil

Arrest Warrant, filed on September 21, 2010, and ordered that the United States Marshal

Service “arrest Mr. Art Gomez, anytime of the day or night, and any day of the week[].” (Id.

at 1) Judge Wake further ordered that “Mr. Art Gomez be brought before the Honorable

Neil V. Wake, or if said Judge is absent or unable to act, the nearest or most accessible

judge” and that Defendant Art Gomez post a $1000.00 bond before he is released from

USMS custody. (Id. at 2) Because Judge Wake was absent from the U.S. Courthouse on

October 1, 2010 after Mr. Gomez was arrested, Judge Wake referred Mr. Gomez’ arrest to

the undersigned Magistrate Judge for resolution.

26) Mr. Gomez was detained by the USMS until Monday morning, October 4, 2010. 

Upon the posting of a $1000.00 bond on October 4, 2010, Mr. Gomez was

released without conditions except full compliance with Plaintiff’s subpoena for documents

Having conferred with Plaintiff’s counsel and Mr. Gomez on the dates and

times set forth below,

IT IS ORDERED that on or before Friday, October 8, 2010 at 3:00 p.m.
