FOURTH ACCOUNT AND REPORT OF CONSERVATOR; PETITION FOR ALLOWANCE OF FEES
fact, withholding information based on objections. (See, e.g., Responsive Separate Statement at 12:11-21.)
The Court is sympathetic to Plaintiff’s argument that Auberge’s responses are evasive in light of the number and boilerplate style of objections asserted, and its unwillingness to clearly state whether the substantive responses are complete. Moreover, Auberge’s asserted justifications for many of its objections are strikingly abstract of discussion of the discovery request at issue.
In light of the foregoing, the Court orders the parties to further meet and confer. Auberge is ordered to identify for Plaintiff, in a writing served no later than July 23, 2026, each of the subject discovery requests as to which it is withholding information and/or documents based on an objection. For each, it shall identify the objection(s) and provide a brief argument, specific to the subject request and the specific objection, supporting its decision to withhold the information. The parties shall then meet and confer in an attempt to resolve any disputes regarding such withholding.
Finally, the parties shall inform the Court, by filing one or respective Supplemental Separate Statements which of the particular discovery requests remain at issue in advance of the continued hearing.
