Opinion
Case No. 6:05-cv-259-Orl-31DAB.
November 1, 2006
ORDER
This cause came on for consideration without oral argument on the following motion filed herein:
MOTION: PLAINTIFF JANE DOE'S MOTION FOR SANCTIONS
FILED: October 13, 2006
(Doc. No. 83) THEREON ORDERED DENIED
As is clear from the transcript of the October 6, 2006 hearing, Defendants' counsel (possibly erroneously) believed the deposition of the City's Rule 30(b)(6) representative had been rescheduled to November 2, 2006, and Plaintiff's counsel agreed on the record that the Rule 30(b)(6) deposition was set for November 2, 2006. See Doc. No. 89-2 at 3. Thus, sanctions are inappropriate at this time, but the Motion may be reasserted if the City's representative does not appear and cooperate fully at the deposition on November 2, 2006.
Plaintiff's concerns regarding the impact of the City's less than full participation on Plaintiff's discovery are well-taken. It is ORDERED that Plaintiff's expert disclosure deadline is extended until December 1, 2006 and the parties' discovery deadline is extended until December 15, 2206 exclusively for the purpose of deposing the parties' respective experts. The dispositive motions deadline remains January 2, 2007.
Defendants' expert disclosure deadline remains November 1, 2006.
DONE and ORDERED.
