IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

WESTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

HARRISON DIVISION

ROBERT D. JOHNSTON and

MELANIE K. JOHNSTON PLAINTIFFS

V. 06-CV-03002

JASON BRISCO, et. al. DEFENDANTS

ORDER

Currently before the Court is the Motion to Quash (Doc.

140) filed by Separate Defendants Jason Brisco, Lyle Smith and

Paul Woodruff on November 30, 2006. On November 13, 2006,

Plaintiffs faxed a pleading to counsel for Separate Defendants

noticing Jason Brisco and Paul Woodruff for depositions on

today’s date, Monday, December 4, 2006. Separate Defendants

contend they intended to appear for these depositions but

anticipated difficulty in traveling to Fayetteville due to the

weather, therefore, they filed this motion to quash. Separate

Defendants state that they can be made available for a

deposition on another date agreed to by the parties. Counsel

for Separate Defendants advised the Court he mailed

correspondence to Plaintiffs on November 30, 2006, advising them

that he was moving to quash the deposition notice. However, it

is unclear whether Plaintiffs received sufficient notice of

Separate Defendants’ intentions so as to avoid appearing for the

depositions today.

The Court being well and sufficiently advised, finds that

the motion (Doc. 140) is GRANTED and the deposition notice is

quashed. However, counsel for Separate Defendants is ordered to

consult with Plaintiffs today to determine an agreed upon date

for the depositions and to promptly notify the Court once an

agreement is reached.

IT IS SO ORDERED this 4 day of December 2006. th
