This endorsement arises from a case conference in a complex action involving TD Bank and numerous insurance underwriters.
The court addressed the management of three pending discovery motions (defendants' refusals, plaintiff's refusals, and defendants' motion for a second discovery representative) and trial management issues.
The court declined the plaintiff's request to expand their refusals motion, permitted the plaintiff to withdraw their existing refusals motion without prejudice, and vacated the scheduled trial date of September 13, 2021, as the action was not ready.
The court provided specific case management directions for completing discoveries, updating motion materials, and preparing for a future trial date.
