Judge Baer Clarifies That He Wants “No More Letters” About 30(b)(6) Witness

We blogged earlier about Judge Baer telling an insurance company that had complained about the preparation of a 30(b)(6) witness:  “your notice was and is far too broad  — lets get on with it!”  Apparently that strong response was not as clear to the insurance company as it was to us.  The company wrote a follow-up letter requesting clarification, and, on Friday, Judge Baer provided unmistakable clarity: “I don’t see the need for more from him (a) because he doesn’t have all the answers and appears not to have them and (b) because you have other discovery tasks which may help.”  Judge Baer added “There are to be no more letters on this topic  -- Good Luck.”
