Opinion
*1 Dear Counsel:
By an Order dated September 30, 2022 (the “Order”), I appointed The Honorable Christopher Sontchi of Delaware ADR, LLC to serve as Special Discovery Master in this action. After Judge Sontchi filed his acceptance of the appointment on the docket, an unanticipated conflict arose. In light of that, I will now handle the in camera contemplated by the Order.
The representative set selected for each motion will now be reduced from 200 to 40 documents. The parties are instructed to exchange their respective lists of 40 documents by 5 p.m. tomorrow, October 2. The receiving party will then deliver two hard copy sets of the 40 documents identified by the movant to my Chambers by 4:30 p.m. on October 3.
If a selected document was produced with redactions, then the redactions should be “see through” so that I can understand what information was withheld. If the selected document is part of a family of documents, then the document's family members may be included in the hard copy set. With the hard copies, the parties shall submit their privilege logs and a list of key players. Please also bind and tab the hard copies, and include a table of contents.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
Sincerely,
Kathaleen St. Jude McCormick Chancellor
