Jackie Greene, Plaintiff v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., Defendant
Order Adopting Report and Recommendation, Granting Motion for Sanctions, and Dismissing Case [ECF 15, 29]
Since the inception of this slip-and-fall case, plaintiff Jackie Greene has consistently refused to comply with her discovery obligations. After numerous failed attempts to meet and confer with plaintiff's counsel regarding Greene's discovery obligations, defendant Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. moved for discovery sanctions under FRCP 37. Following a hearing, Magistrate Judge Koppe entered a report recommending that I grant Wal-Mart's motion for discovery sanctions and dismiss this action in its entirety under FRCP 37(d). Objections to Judge Koppe's report and recommendation were due by February 12, 2016. Greene has not filed an objection or requested an extension to do so.
See generally ECF 29 (chronicling Greene's laundry list of discovery violations).
