Opinion
Case No. 13 C 4168
11-19-2014
MICHAEL WIESNETH, Plaintiff, v. JOSEPH KRIEBS, et al., Defendants.
MEMORANDUM ORDER
This Court has just received from defense counsel a Notice of Filing that reports counsel's filing of what is described as "Defendants 26(a)(2) opinion witness disclosure of Dr. Gary S. Skaletsky." It appears that defense counsel may be unaware of this District Court's prohibition on such filing as set out in the first sentence of LR 26.3:
Except as provided by this rule, discovery materials, including disclosure of expert testimony, shall not be filed with the court.Accordingly the document referred to in the Notice of Filing is stricken from the file (or, in these days of electronic filing, the Clerk's Office is directed to take whatever action is called for to make the document inaccessible as a public document).
[Footnote by the Court] That limited exception is inapplicable here.
