IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

JONESBORO DIVISION

RON NICHOLS, ET AL. PLAINTIFFS

Case Number: 3:03CV00169 GH

AMERICAN CYANAMID COMPANY, ET AL. DEFENDANTS

ORDER

Pending before the Court is defendants’ motion to compel discovery. Defendants contend

that plaintiffs have failed to fully respond to discovery requests, despite the Court’s order directing

them to do so. Plaintiffs contend that they have responded, with the exception of the production of

the income tax returns of plaintiff Freeda Parrent and plaintiff Vance Lee. Defendant refutes that

and states that discovery not provided includes the income tax returns of all plaintiffs. Defendant

further asserts that Parrent and Lee have waived any objection to providing tax information, and that

any objections to providing the information is without merit. 

 It appears that plaintiffs have not provided tax returns for all plaintiffs,. The Court agrees

that tax information, including that of Parrent and Lee, is relevant as to the amount of damages

claimed by plaintiffs. Therefore, plaintiffs are directed to provide the tax information requested

within thirty days of the date of this Order.

Accordingly, the motion to compel is granted. 

IT IS SO ORDERED this 7th day of November, 2005.
