ORDER

Pending before the Court is Plaintiff's Third Motion to Correct Discovery Issues,
16

filed February 22, 2006. Plaintiff again requests that the Court compel Defendants to
17

produce copies of the manufacturer's guides for the medications Plaintiff has taken.
18

The Court will reiterate, one final time, the standard articulated pursuant to FED.
19

R. CIV. P. 26(b)(2). The rule empowers the Court to limit discovery if it is "unreasonably
20

cumulative or duplicative, or is obtainable from some other source that is more
21

convenient, less burdensome, or less expensive." As the Court explained when it ruled
22

on Plaintiff's Second Motion to Correct Discovery Issues, Plaintiff has not demonstrated
23

that the prescription information he seeks is not essentially duplicative of the information
24

provided to Plaintiff by Defendants, or that the information provided by Defendants is
25

inadequate. Accordingly, Plaintiff's motion will be denied. Additionally, the Court will
26

not entertain any further motions on discovery disputes which have previously been
27

addressed.
