Plaintiff Daniel W. Faerfers filed a motion seeking a

protective order that he not be required to travel from Germany

to the Eastern District of California for his deposition.

Plaintiff claimed that requiring him to travel that distance for

his deposition would cause him an undue hardship. 

On October 7, 2005, this Court issued a protective order in

accordance with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 30(b)(7)

mandating that Daniel Faerfers’ deposition be taken by telephonic

or other electronic means. See Mem. and Order, Oct. 7, 2005. 

Caviar Creator filed a motion for reconsideration and the

matter was heard at 9:00 a.m. on October 17, 2005. Counsel for

plaintiff Daniel Faerfers and defendant Caviar Creator, Inc. and

cross-defendant Sinclair Wilson were present for oral argument.

After consideration of the papers filed by the parties in

support of and in opposition to the motion as well as oral

argument presented at the hearing, the Court does not find that

requiring Daniel Faerfers to personally appear at his deposition

in the Eastern District of California will cause him an undue

hardship.
