MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER: The Court denies the 20 motion to compel, grants Plaintiffs' 21 motion for sanctions, and otherwise denies relief. The Court concludes that Cumulus's counsel's short-notice, unilateral cancellation of the deposition justifies imposing the costs of rescheduling on them. If the parties cannot agree, Plaintiffs shall submit a bill of costs. (Ordered by Chief District Judge David C Godbey on 3/29/2023) (twd) |
