"Slow playing" matters not when you have tons of information to submit. Also there is a deadline for a reason - that is the last possible time you can have your documents submitted. There is no wrongdoing there. The defendant breached an agreement made prior to fact discovery - goodluck explaining these games to the jury if Chanbond pushes those topics. They breached their OWN agreement that they came to Chanbond with LOL.
By the way having a feeling the judge would grant this is beyond me. He totally went against proper procedures of his own court. Takes away the credibility of the the court system. Now any plaintiff or defendant going forward can use this case to show that fact discovery is totally obsolete... Just bring up a new theory at the end of expert discovery in the depos period and you will get it through before the Daubert hearing. Total joke.
But as I stated prior it can also be raised as a positive event. One less thing for them to appeal later after any awarded damages from trial (if it ever gets to that).
