Let’s hold the depositions of Paul Stolbof on April 18 and Robin Milberg on April 25th by zoom absent
objection by anyone? John please confirm that date with Robin ASAP. Are there dates after that for
Gus Moore that you want us to check on? Are you going to produce Joan Gray for her deposition?

So can we nail down the dates for each? | think this was what we proposed but forgive me if | am
mistaken.
1. Paul Stolbof (April 25, 26)
2. Gus Moore (April 18, 19, 24)
3. Robin Milberg (April 25, 26)
4. Chrissy Cutrona (March 30, 31; April 6, 13, 21)
Based on your desire for a different order, how about Stobof April 25, Milberg April 26, and we go
back to the drawing board for Moore for a date after Milberg?

Counsel,
You have not even bothered to respond to the email below, and you did not produce any
further discovery, not even the discovery you agreed to produce. We agreed to exchange written
discovery before depositions, yet you have withheld some of the most significant written discovery.
You have also refused, for weeks now, to provide the names of the persons noticed for
deposition who you will not represent at depositions or to provide the last known addresses of the
former employees who you will not represent at depositions. You also have not moved for a
protective order regarding the depositions of current employees (if any — since you refuse to tell us
who is who).
Finally, we will depose the witnesses we noticed in the order noticed, not in your preferred
order. The dates you provided are fine. We will take them in this order: Stolbof, Milberg, Moore,
Friedlander (absent a protective order), Diamond (absent a protective order) and continuing in the
order noticed.
We will be filing a motion to compel the long-outstanding discovery and to compel the
depositions of persons you refuse to produce as well as for the addresses of those who you will not
represent and who are no longer employed.

John,
Will you be producing the discovery requested months ago, and limited in our recent
correspondence (without prejudice to our continuing to seek the discovery we put on hold) in order to
receive it in time to prepare for plaintiff's deposition?
