RULING AND ORDER granting in part and denying in part 163 Motion to Quash by Hybrid& 165 Motion to Quash by CrossFit.For the reasons explained in the attached Ruling and Order, the motions to quash are GRANTED IN PART AND DENIED IN PART.The motions are granted in part on relevance grounds, but only to the extent consistent with the rulings in the attached Ruling and Order, and with respect to the four documents specifically identified as containing attorney work product. The motions are otherwise denied with respect to the claimed application of the attorney-client privilege,the common interest rule, and the work product doctrine.Because of the unique importance of the attorney-client privilege in our system of justice, the denial on privilege grounds is without prejudice to renewal, subject to an evidentiary showing of the existence of either an attorney-client relationship or a joint litigation strategy between Hybrid and Cross-Fit's in-house counsel, consistent with the cases cited in this ruling.Any re-filed motion to quash must be filed in this Court by September 20, 2019. Moreover, before any such motion is re-filed, the parties must meet and confer to develop an expedited briefing schedule to ensure the speedy and efficient completion of all outstanding pre-trial discovery. See attached Ruling and Order for full details. Signed by Judge Victor A. Bolden on 8/30/2019. (Baran, Hugh)
