Case No. 11-15268

ANNETTE WORLEY, Plaintiff, v. AKB EXPRESS, INC., et al., Defendants.
ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANTS' "MOTION TO COMPEL PLAINTIFF'S BANK
ACCOUNT INFORMATION"
Plaintiff alleges that one of Defendants, while driving a semi-trailer truck, negligently struck Plaintiff's automobile. Among other harms, Plaintiff alleges disability, including a diminished ability to enjoy life. Among other remedies, Plaintiff demands lost wages. In part to either confirm or disprove both Plaintiff's disability and Plaintiff's unemployment, Defendants sent Plaintiff an interrogatory requesting Plaintiff's bank records. Plaintiff objected to the request. Defendants therefore move to compel production of the records. Plaintiff submits no response.
During a September 11, 2012, on-the-record telephone conference Plaintiff offered no sufficient reason for withholding the bank records. For the reasons stated by the court during the telephone conference,
IT IS ORDERED that Defendants' "Motion to Compel Plaintiff's Bank Account Information" [Dkt. # 20] is GRANTED.
Defendants may submit a motion under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 37(a)(5) by September 18, 2012. Failure to submit a timely motion will waive any right to Rule 37(a)(5) costs and fees.
