Re: Cause No. 2019-39477; Elite Racing Development, LLC. and Ashton Ainsworth,
Individually and as Sole Owner of Elite Racing Development, LLC v. National
Casualty Company, et. al.; In the 61 Jud. Dist. Court of Harris County, Texas.
Honorable Judge Phillips:
Upon review of Plaintiffs’ proposed Docket Control Order filed today, the only date
opposed by the Defendants is the inclusion of new expert designation deadlines. Plaintiffs
designated experts on March 23, 2020, and Defendants designated experts on April 2, 2020.
Defendants do not see the need for new expert deadlines. Moreover, Defendants object to
Plaintiffs’ proposed expert deadline of October 4, 2021 and object to a combined deadline for
both Plaintiffs and Defendants. With a November 1, 2021 discovery deadline, Plaintiffs’
proposed deadline of October 4, 2021 would not allow sufficient time for depositions or rebuttal
expert designations. Defendants request the entry of the Docket Control Order proposed today
by Plaintiffs without new expert designation deadlines, or in the alternative, expert designation
deadlines of no less than 60 and 90 days before the close of discovery for the respective parties.
Very truly yours,
Patrick M. Kemp
