stayed.
On October 4, 1999, petitioners’ bankruptcy case was
dismissed with prejudice. The stay of proceedings in this case
was thereafter lifted, and the case was rescheduled for trial
during the Court’s June 5, 2000, trial session.
Discovery for June 2000 Trial
Confronted with petitioners’ refusal to work toward a
stipulation of facts, respondent filed a Motion to Show Cause Why
Proposed Facts in Evidence Should Not Be Accepted as Established
on February 7, 2000. On February 8, 2000, the Court issued an
Order to Show Cause Under Rule 91(f), requiring petitioners to
respond as to why matters set forth in respondent’s motion should
not be deemed admitted. Petitioners filed a response on February
19, 2000, but such response failed to address the proposed
stipulations.
On March 3, 2000, respondent proceeded with a second attempt
at formal discovery, serving on petitioners Respondent’s Second
Set of Interrogatories, Respondent’s Second Request for
Production of Documents, and Respondent’s Requests for Admission.
Petitioners addressed these discovery requests in much the same
manner as previous ones, prompting respondent again to seek the
assistance of this Court in obtaining discovery. On
April 14, 2000, respondent filed a Motion to Compel Responses to
Respondent’s Second Request for Production of Documents. On
