How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- concluding that plaintiff waived objections where objections were untimely and the objections did not include a privilege log
- holding an untimely assertion of attorney-client privilege was waived when asserted twenty-two days late, without a privilege log, and where the dispute by its very nature involved communications between battling insurance companies and their lawyers
- finding all objections waived but noting that court “may have been inclined to give the plaintiff the benefit of the doubt” and limit scope of waiver despite untimely objections
- explaining courts apply Rule 33’s waiver language to Rule 34 and citing cases
- initial objections served 22 days late, no log served, and litigant’s excuses lacked credibility given its failure to seek extension of deadline
