IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ATLANTIC MUTUAL INSURANCE

COMPANY, a corporation,

Plaintiff,

 v.

BODYLINES, INC., a corporation,

Defendant. /

No. C 05-01523 WHA

ORDER DENYING 

PLAINTIFF’S MOTION FOR

PROTECTIVE ORDER AND

VACATING HEARING

Atlantic Mutual’s motion for a protective order is DENIED. The record shows that the

proposed testing by Mr. Moon will be minimally destructive and has a plausible chance to

prove something useful. Atlantic Mutual had a reasonable opportunity to test the drive and

spurned it. Now, Bodylines will have its chance, but Bodylines is ordered to honor all

conditions Moon has set for the test including the conditions in the memo dated September 28,

2005. If the parties cannot fully agree in writing, on or before December 13, 2005, on a date for

the test then it shall go forward on December 20, 2005. At all events, the test must be

completed by January 13, 2005, and the results provided to the Court and counsel. Please do

not ask for an extension.

The motion lacks details, specificity and good cause. It appears to be a dilatory tactic. 

Pursuant to Rule 37, the Court orders movant Atlantic Mutual to pay Bodylines $750 to defray

the cost of responding to the insubstantial motion. The hearing set for December 15, 2005 is

vacated.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: December 6, 2005
