ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF'S MOTION FOR TERMINATING SANCTIONS
RICARDO S. MARTINEZ, Chief District Judge.
THIS MATTER comes before the Court on Plaintiff's Motion for Terminating Sanctions. Dkt. #120. Plaintiff seeks an Order dismissing all of Defendants' counterclaims as a sanction for their alleged overuse of the Attorneys' Eyes Only ("AEO") designation of documents during discovery. Id. The Court DENIES this motion for counsels' failure to engage in the appropriate meet-and-confer required by this Court's Rules and the stipulated Protective Order. LCR 37(a)(1) and Dkt. #19 at ¶ 7.2. The record reflects numerous discussions between counsel regarding Defendants' AEO designations. See Dkts. #122 and #143. However, having reviewed that record, and the history of this matter, the Court is not convinced that the parties had reached an impasse requiring the filing of the instant motion, or that all parties had engaged in a good faith effort to resolve the dispute. For those reasons, Plaintiff's Motion for Terminating Sanctions (Dkt. #120) is DENIED.
