Sep. 24th, 2010 05:42 pmToday in my house was quite exciting! Huh?
I fielded items from the office, sending an attempt to resolve discovery dispute, a quick motion to compel, and receiving a response. I even "warmed" an AJ to let her know the compel was hot due to this week's depos in SF. 3 filings and a conference call later:
Case is bi-fruit-caked with regard to damages
Depos are all postponed
45 days is tacked onto discovery
The AJ sided with me, but cautioned some of my interrogatories were potentially long or difficult to respond to (I only disagree with the 2nd part)
When the guy tried to ask me to print the emails I provided on disk (200mb) because he couldn't access the files "in wordperfect from a few years ago," and I noted the programs I used were pretty standard MS Outlook, Word, Excel, and some pdf files...and I told him that it was burdensome so unless he could screen what he wanted I was not going to print hundreds or thousands of emails, the AJ noted if he lacked the software he could report to her office and use the EEOC's system. That had to be embarrassing.
(Usually people complain you don't give them electronic files because they can't sort and search them or access metadata)
Yay worky work stuff. I'm tired.
