MINUTES OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SCHUTTE & KOERTING v. SWETT & CRAWFORD No. 05-0165-LAB(LSP)

HON. LEO S. PAPAS CT. DEPUTY TRISH LOPEZ Rptr. 

Attorneys

Plaintiffs Defendants

 

Defendants’ Motion to Compel (Doc. #113) is DENIED.

Defendants have failed to show that the documents requested are relevant

to the claim or defense of any party, or are reasonably calculated to lead

to the discovery of admissible evidence. FRCP 26(b)(1)

Even if the documents are relevant, which they are not, Defendants have

failed to show that they have a substantial need for the documents sought

or that they are unable without undue hardship to obtain the substantial

equivalent of the materials by other means. FRCP 26(b)(3)

Plaintiff’s argument that Defendants’ failure to serve a FRCP Rule 45

subpoena on Mr. Wactor for the requested documents defeats Defendants’

motion, is moot.
