LYLE E. STROM, Senior District Judge.
This matter is before the Court upon defendants' objections to plaintiffs' page-line deposition transcript designations, requesting a ruling on videotape depositions taken for use at trial (Filing No. 154), as well as objections listed in defendants' amended list of deposition testimony to be offered at trial, submitted following Court's order on plaintiffs' motion for partial summary judgment (Filing No. 182, at 3). The Court has also taken into account plaintiffs' supplemental notice of witness and evidence limitations in light of liability finding (Filing No. 185) and plaintiffs' supplemental notice — plaintiffs' witnesses and evidence post-pretrial rulings (Filing No. 188). Following are the Court's rulings on objections asserted by defendants.
1. Page 20, Line 23 through Page 22, Line 10. Objection on the basis of no proper, prior disclosure. The Court assumes that this objection is related to defendants' motion in limine regarding any reference at trial concerning any records or opinions that were not disclosed in a timely manner (Filing No. 165, with brief, Filing No. 166, at 3-4). The Court reserves ruling on this objection until plaintiffs have been heard regarding the motion in limine.
