Court Refuses Late Motion for International Deposition

Posted in Discovery

Chamberlain Group, Inc. v. Lear Corp., No. 05 C 3449, Slip Op. (N.D. Ill. Jul. 12, 2010) (St. Eve, J.).

Judge St. Eve denied plaintiffs’ motion for a letter of request to India’s Ministry of Law and Justice seeking a deposition of an individual third party that previously was a software programmer for defendant’s software vendor Wipro. Despite identifying the witness in July 2009, Plaintiffs did not file their motion until June 2010, two weeks before the close of discovery.
