7. 24CV00627 Norcal Home Design, Inc. v. First Response, Inc et al.

EVENT: Motion of Defense First Response Inc. To Have Requests for Admissions Deemed Admitted, to Compel Responses to Form Interrogatories and Request for Production of Documents, and for Imposition of Monetary Sanctions Against Plaintiff and Counsel

In light of the discovery responses served by Plaintiff, the motion is moot. The Court is not considering whether the discovery responses are code compliant at this time. The request for sanctions is denied. While technically Defendant is correct that meet and confer is not required in these circumstances, the failure to meet and confer is relevant on the issue of sanctions when there appears to be a legitimate explanation for the delay in providing responses.
