Their failure to timely produce accurate and complete information requested by the fact sheets prejudices ConAgra’s ability to prepare its defense and needlessly delays this litigation.

Messina said that her symptoms began in “Fall 2006,” and Neuharth says that her symptoms began sometime between “late ‘06” and February 2007. Neither remembers any additional details. Plaintiff Rollins said in June 2010 that she would supplement her fact sheet as soon as possible, and counsel for Plaintiff Witherspoon asked the Court for additional time to locate Witherspoon. Therefore, the Court denies the Defendant’s Motion to Compel as to these plaintiffs.
