EMILY LITTLER, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

v.

BAY AREA RAPID TRANSIT DISTRICT,

et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 14-cv-05072-DMR 

ORDER ON JOINT DISCOVERY 

LETTER

Re: Dkt. No. 40

The court has received the parties’ February 9, 2016 joint discovery letter in which 

Defendants’ move to compel the production of documents. [Docket No. 40.] The fact discovery 

cut-off was January 12, 2016 and the expert discovery cut-off was February 9, 2016. Pursuant to 

Civil Local Rule 37-3, “no motions to compel fact discovery may be filed more than 7 days after 

the fact discovery cut-off.” Accordingly, Defendants’ motion appears untimely. While the Local 

Rule also provides that “no motions to compel expert discovery may be filed more than 7 days 

after the expert discovery cut-off,” Civ. L.R. 37-3, there is no indication in the joint letter that the 

discovery at issue is related to expert discovery. If Defendants argue that their motion to compel 

is timely because it relates to expert discovery, Defendants shall file a one-page letter by close of 

business on February 18, 2016 explaining how the discovery at issue relates to expert discovery. 

Defendants shall also identify all of the retained experts in this case (by all parties) and the subject 

of each expert’s testimony.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: February 17, 2016
