Defendants' motion to compel plaintiff to answer undertakings and refusals during discovery and re-attend examinations for further questioning.
Background:
Plaintiff claims breach of contract and unjust enrichment, alleging a joint venture to grow marijuana on defendants' property. He claims significant contributions but was denied compensation after the property was sold prematurely.
Defendants deny any joint venture, asserting the plaintiff was a tenant growing marijuana for personal use, and argue that any agreement was illegal.
Court Findings:
Greenhouse Expenses: Plaintiff must detail costs and provide supporting evidence and bank records.
Damages Claim: Plaintiff must fully particularize expenses, construction costs, and mortgage payments.
Labor Claims: Plaintiff must detail hours and activities related to his labor claims.
Legal Communications: Communications with Mr. Jassal are privileged, but correspondence with defendants must be produced.
Mortgage Payments: Plaintiff must clarify if payments entitle him to property value increases or reimbursements.
Medical Files and Tax Returns: Not relevant and need not be produced.
Disposition:
Plaintiff ordered to answer specific undertakings and re-attend discovery for up to 90 minutes for further questioning based on new information provided.
Costs:
Parties may submit written submissions on costs if unresolved independently, with specific guidelines provided for the submission process.
No specific monetary award or costs were detailed.
Successful Party:
The document provided does not specify a final ruling on the main issues of the case. It details the procedural motion regarding discovery obligations. Thus, no party is definitively the "successful" one based on the procedural ruling alone.
