(3) Defendants’ Motion to Compel Morgan Rae Hatzis’ Further Responses to Requests for Production of Documents, Set Two and for Sanctions (4) Defendants’ Motion to Compel Morgan Rae Hatzis’ Further Responses to Form Interrogatories, Set Two and for Sanctions The Court finds that Plaintiff provided supplemental responses to the discovery at issue on July 30, 2026 [See Declarations of Andrew Mahiany]. Consequently, the Court deems the Motions to Compel to be moot and are, for that reason, denied. However, Defendants’ requests for sanctions are granted, the Court finding that Defendants were forced to seek this relief prior to Plaintiff providing such supplemental responses without substantial justification.
The Court awards sanctions against Plaintiff and her counsel of record Freedom Thru Business APC, in the amount of $4,000, which are to be paid within 30 days’ notice of this ruling. Plaintiff’s request for sanctions is denied. Counsel for the Defendants shall submit a revised form of order within two weeks.
