Judge Baer Rejects Complaints About 30(b)(6) Preparation, Tells Parties to "Get On With It!"

An insurance company complained to Judge Baer that its adversary's Rule 30(b)(6) witness, Sadiq Toama, did not sufficiently prepare because he "only 'scanned' the deposition notice and subjects of examination the day before the deposition, and only reviewed [his employer's] document production the day before the deposition to prepare himself."  In a letter endorsement Thursday, Judge Baer was not sympathetic:  "Toama is fine with me and your deposition notice was and is far too broad  -- lets get on with it!"
