Opinion
Civil Action No. 7:12-cv-81 (HL)
02-12-2013
MANDY BASS, et al., Plaintiff, v. BERRIEN COUNTY, et al., Defendant.
ORDER
On February 1, 2013, Defendants filed a Notice informing the Court that Plaintiff Mandy Bass has not yet been deposed in this case. (Doc. 16.) In this Notice, Defendants stated that Ms. Bass has been, and continues to be, unable to give a deposition due to her medical condition. Defendants gave the Court no other information, as no other additional information was available to them at the time.
The Court now orders Plaintiffs to produce additional information about Ms. Bass's condition. Specifically, the Court orders Plaintiffs to submit a signed statement from Ms. Bass's treating physician apprising the Court of the following: (1) why Ms. Bass is unable to give a deposition, (2) whether Ms. Bass will ever be able to give a deposition, and (3) if she will be able to give a deposition in the future, when this deposition could reasonably occur. This letter from the physician is due to the Court no later than Wednesday, February 27, 2013.
