Stip. and [Proposed] Order re Resp’t’s Discovery in Connection with Competency Determination (C 07-4727 EMC)
1
On April 23, 2012, this Court granted petitioner’s motion to determine competency. On
2
May 8 and 15, 2012, the parties filed a Joint Case Management Statement and replies addressing
3
the structure and schedule for the Court’s determination of petitioner’s present competency to
4
assist counsel and participate in these capital habeas corpus proceedings. The Court has not yet
5
issued an order setting forth the structure and schedule for the competency determination.
6
Subject to approval by this Court, the parties hereby agree and stipulate to the following:
7
1) Pursuant to Rule 6 of the Rules Governing Section 2254 Cases, there is good cause for
8
respondent’s request for production of the following documents from petitioner under Rule 34 of
9
the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, to the extent petitioner’s counsel have such documents in
10
their possession as of the date of the entry of the Order on this Stipulation:
11
a) petitioner’s birth and pediatric medical and mental health records;
12
b) petitioner’s school records (elementary, middle, and high schools);
13
c) petitioner’s juvenile hall and California Youth Authority (CYA) records
14
(including disciplinary, medical, mental health, education, and work);
15
d) petitioner’s jail records (medical/mental health only) from the period when he was
16
incarcerated during the pretrial, trial, and sentencing stages of this case;
17
e) the "medical document" of petitioner's maternal grandfather, Isaac Hayes, who
18
was diagnosed with psychosis due to epilepsy, and which was relied upon by Dr.
19
Benson in his state habeas declaration (see paragraph 3(e) of declaration); and,
20
f) all mental health records of petitioner’s family members in petitioner’s possession,
21
whether or not provided to Dr. Gregory or Dr. Hines.
22
2) Pursuant to Rule 6 of the Rules Governing Section 2254 Cases, there is good cause for
23
respondent to issue third-party subpoenas for the following documents under Rule 45 of the
24
Federal Rules of Civil Procedure:
25
a) petitioner’s juvenile hall and California Youth Authority (CYA) records
26
(including disciplinary, medical, mental health, education, and work); and,
27
b) petitioner’s jail records (medical/mental health only) from the period when he was
28
incarcerated during the pretrial, trial, and sentencing stages of this case.
2
Stip. and [Proposed] Order re Resp’t’s Discovery in Connection with Competency Determination (C 07-4727 EMC)
1
2
3) The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure will apply to respondent's request for production
of documents and issuance of subpoenas.
3
4
4) Petitioner will produce the above requested documents and/or issue objections within 30
days of the Court's order on this stipulation;
5
5) Respondent’s third-party subpoenas will issue within 7 days of the Court's order on this
6
stipulation and will command production of responsive documents within 30 days of issuance of
7
the subpoena. Within 7 days of respondent’s receipt of responsive documents, respondent will
8
provide copies of the documents to petitioner at petitioner's expense. Petitioner will rely upon the
9
Federal Rules of Civil Procedure for relief if any third party fails to comply in a timely manner.
10
6) Documents produced in response to respondent's discovery request and subpoenas will
11
be covered by any protective order issued by the Court in connection with the competency
12
determination.
13
7) Petitioner reserves the right to object to the admission of any of the documents obtained
14
pursuant to this Stipulation on the grounds that such documents are irrelevant or inconsequential
15
to the determination of Petitioner’s present competency to meaningfully assist counsel or
16
participate in these habeas corpus proceedings. Petitioner reserves the right the object on these
17
same grounds to any expert opinions based upon any documents obtained pursuant to this
18
Stipulation, or upon the non-existence or unavailability of responsive documents.
19
IT IS SO STIPULATED.
