ORDER
On April 2, 2002, a telephone conference call was conducted
in this matter to address the status of the case and outstanding
motions. Three outstanding motions were presented for
consideration: Petitioner's Motion to Compel, Respondent's
Motion for Discovery Sanction, and Respondent's request for
continuance as an appropriate remedy for alleged discovery
violations. Respondent, Pompano Motor Company, has filed A
Notice of Dismissal. Having considered the pleading, the
argument of counsel, and being fully advised, it is
ORDERED:
1. DOAH Case Nos. 01-3498, 01-3581, 02-0230, and 02-0328
are hereby closed. Jurisdiction in these cases is relinquished
to the agency as there are no disputed issues of material fact
requiring hearing. Reference to the cases will be deleted from
the style of this matter.
2. The Petitioner's Motion to Compel is denied. The
Respondent, Massey-Yardley Chrysler Plymouth, Inc. (M-Y), has
represented it will not attempt to offer evidence elicited from
an unknown Chrysler employee. Therefore, the identity of such
individual is unnecessary. If M-Y¥ determines it will attempt to
offer such evidence at hearing, it must disclose the name of the
individual no later than 5:00 p.m., April 8, 2002. Similarly,
M-Y has represented it does not believe a new point is warranted
under the statutory criteria. Therefore, the location of such
new point is not disputed. If M-Y, or the experts retained by
it, determine that if a new point is desirable it should be
located at a point other than as proposed by Petitioner, such
opinion must be disclosed to Petitioner no latex than 5:00 p.m.,
April 8, 2002.
3. With regard to Respondent's Motion for Discovery
Sanction, Petition shall make Timothy M. Houran available for
telephone deposition at Petitioner's expense. Respondent shall
provide 48 hours notice for such deposition.
4. Respondent's request for a four-month continuance as an
appropriate discovery Sanction is denied.
DONE AND ORDERED this 3 day of April, 2002, in
Tallahassee, Leon County, Florida.
