ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFFS’ MOTION FOR SANCTIONS
THIS MATTER came before the Court upon Plaintiffs’ Motion For Sanctions Against
Defendant For Failure to Comply with the Court Order Dated July 21, 2008 (Docket No.
28).  Defendant filed a response to said motion.  This order is issued without necessity of
reply.
Counsel for Defendant maintains that, due to problems with his office’s internet
service provider, he did not receive notice of entry of the Court’s July 21, 2008, Order.
Counsel asserts that Defendant is making efforts to comply now that it is aware of the said
order and requests an additional twenty (20) days in which to file the discovery responses.

Brown v. Charlie’s/Diamond Ready Mix, Inc.
2006-CV-0167
Order Denying Plaintiff’s Motion For Sanctions
Page 2
The Court finds that Defendant has established good cause for not complying with
the deadline set in the said order.  In light of the stipulated extension of discovery
deadlines and the Court’s approval thereof, the Court finds that Plaintiff is not prejudiced
by the delay of the production of the discovery at issue.  Consequently, the Court finds that
sanctions are not warranted.
Accordingly, it is now hereby ORDERED:
1.
Plaintiffs’ Motion For Sanctions Against Defendant For Failure to Comply
with the Court Order Dated July 21, 2008 (Docket No. 28) is DENIED.
2.
Defendant shall serve upon counsel for Plaintiff the discovery responses, as
ordered by Order Granting  Plaintiff’s Motion to Compel Defendant to
Provide Responses to Discovery (Docket No. 27), on or before August 18,
2008.
