v.
JOSEPH M. ARPAIO, et al., .

Defendant(s).

Case No.: CV-07-2513-PHX-GMS


NON-PARTY TIMOTHY J.
CASEY'S OBJECTION TO
DEFENDANT ARPAIOAND
MARICOPA COUNTY SHERIFF'S
OFFICE STATEMENT RE
PROPOSED DEADLINE FOR
DOCUMENT PRODUCTION

15
16
17

Non-party Timothy J. Casey, by and through his undersigned specially appearing ethics

18

counsel, objects to Defendant Joseph M. Arpaio and MCSO's Statement re Proposed Deadline

19

for Document Production (Dkt#1203) at ~ 10.


20
21

Casey objects to this provision because it improperly imposes on him the expense and

22

burden of litigating his former clients' assertion of privilege over documents Casey has in his

23

possession and that are responsive to the subpoenas duces tecum issued to him by Plaintiffs.

24

On or about December 5, 2014, Casey turned over his entire Melendres client file to

25

Iafrate & Associates, successor counsel to his former clients, defendants Arpaio and MCSO.
26

The documents currently in his possession are merely copies of the documents that were turned

Case 2:07-cv-02513-GMS Document 1206 Filed 07/30/15 Page 2 of 5

over to defendants' current counsel. Casey's former clients have asserted privileges as to

2 certain documents subject to Plaintiffs' request.


3
4

His former clients are the holders of the

privileges and they must litigate the resolution of any privilege disputes with Plaintiffs
preferably before any deposition of Casey takes place.

5
6

Earlier this year, in anticipation of a deposition of Casey, Plaintiffs issued their first

subpoena duces tecum ("SDT 1") to Casey. SDT 1 sought any documents that Casey may

have relating to the subject areas of: (1) the 12/23111 Preliminary Injunction issue; (2) the

5/14114 Court order issue; and (3) the Grissom matter. On May 21, 2015, Casey produced to

10

the parties a list of the "universe" of documents that he has been able to locate at his firm (and,
]1
12

again, which are duplicates of what is contained in the Melendres case file in the possession 0

13

Iafrate & associates), with a cover letter from undersigned counsel setting forth Casey's ethical

14

obligation not to produce any privileged, or arguably privileged, documents absent written

15

consent from his former clients, the holders of the privilege. See Exhibit 1.

16

On May 21, 2015, Casey also wrote Iafrate & Associates regarding the same documents.
17

18

See Exhibit 2.

19

On June 3, 2015, Iafrate & Associates responded to Casey's May 21, 2015

20

correspondence setting forth defendants' position on each document listed by Casey and

21

asserting various priVileges. See Exhibit 3. The letter does not show a copy having been sent
22
23

to Plaintiffs' counsel advising them of defendants' assertion of various privileges on the copies

24 of documents Casey listed.

25

Id.

On May 27, 2015, in anticipation of a rescheduled deposition of Casey, Plaintiffs issued

26

Case 2:07-cv-02513-GMS Document 1206 Filed 07/30/15 Page 3 of 5

their second subpoena duces tecum to him ("SDT 2"). This subpoena included a request for

2 "[a]ny documents relating to production of video or audio recordings during the pretrial

discovery period in this litigation." Casey objected to this request on the grounds of undue

burden but produced to the best of his ability a list of potentially responsive documents by

5
6

general description that he knows existed at the time he turned his entire Melendres file to
successor counsel, Iafrate & Associates. See Exhibit 4.

On June 16, 2015, Plaintiffs expressed concern regarding the adequacy of Casey's

search for documents in response to SDT 1 and SDT 2. See Exhibit 5. In response, on June

lO

18, 2015, Casey explained that he has identified all the documents he has in his possession and
II

12

that any dispute over privilege issues pertaining to the copies of documents he has in his

l3

possession is for Plaintiffs and defense counsel to resolve. See Exhibit 6.

14
15

On June 19, 2015, Plaintiff responded to Casey objections and representations stating
that "based on his representations in Karen's letter of June 18, we will not take further action

16
17

but will reserve the issue for a later time." See Exhibit 7. On June 22, 2015, Casey advised

18

Plaintiff that he would agree to do a pinpoint search of discovery related documents i

19

Plaintiffs advised of the date and author of any specific document that they believe must be or

20

should be on his electronic system. See exhibit 8. No response to the letter was received.

21

Based on the foregoing, Casey has conducted multiple comprehensive, exhaustive, and
22
23

personally expensive searches for documents responsive and potentially responsive to

24

Plaintiffs' SDT 1 and SDT2. He has provided to the parties detailed lists as set forth above and

25 as contained in the Exhibits 1 and 4 to this Objection. His former clients are the holders of the
26

Case 2:07-cv-02513-GMS Document 1206 Filed 07/30/15 Page 4 of 5

privileges, and they have asserted privileges as to the responsive or potentially responsive

documents Casey has listed. The litigation and resolution of these privilege issues, therefore,

properly belongs to defendants and Plaintiffs. Casey should not bear the personal expense and

the professional burden of litigating his former clients' assertion of privilege. Additionally,

5
6

Casey should not face the Hobson's Choice of either complying with SDT 1 and SDT 2 by

producing documents that his former clients assert are privileged or violating his ethical duties

8 to his former clients to maintain the attorney-client privilege and client confidences.

Re:

Dear Mr. Young and Ms. Iafrate:

following subject areas:

1.
2.
3.

The 12!23/t t Preliminary Injunction issue;


The 05/14/14 issue, and;
The Grissom matter.

I have previously disclosed to you that Mr. Casey advises hisenti:re Ortega
Melendres file, including emails.isin the exclusive possessioo and control of Ms.
Iafrate. Plaintiffs, therefore, haVe been directed to secure any and aI1documents '
responsive to the subpoena directly from Ms. Iafrate.
I have not yet been provided any documents, or been made aware that Ms. Iafrate
has produced any doewnents, ftom the Ortega-Melendres file (that Mr. Casey
provided to her last year) in response to the Plaintiffs' subpoena to Mr. Casey. On
the other hand, Mr. Casey has already condueted a reasonable and diligent search of
his fum's electronic systems and has identified documents that his :tirJ:D has that
appear responsive to the subpoena as to thethree-above stated subject areas. Those
documents are listed in the attached document log and contain the "universe" of the
responsive docwnents Mr. Casey has in his finn.
In abundance of caution, and in strict compliance with his etl:UcaI duties to his
fonner clients. Mr. Casey will not pIOduce to Plaintiffs the documents set forth in

Re:

Melendres, el al. v. Arpaio, el al.; Case No. CV-07-025130-PHX-GMS

Dear Ms. Iafrate and Mr. Young:


As counsel from Tim Casey. I am in receipt of Plaintiff's latest Subpoena Duces
Tecum directed to him, dated May 27. 2015. Attachment A to that subpoena at
paragraph number 2 asks Mr. Casey to search for the foHowing:
Any documents relating to production ofvideo or audio recordings
during the pretrial discovery period i,n tbis litigation.
Mr. Casey objects to this request on the grounds that it is unduly bUJlden.some and
expensive for him and his staff to search his law firm's electronic system for
documents that may potentially be responsive to this request. This is especially true
given that his entire fonner case, file that would contain aU potentially responsive
documents is within the exclusive possession and control of current counsel for his
former clients, Ms. Iafrate. If Plaintiffs seek potentially responsive documents on
this particular subject, then they should seek them directly from Ms. Iafrate and her
clients, not from a third party. Mr. casey.
With the foregoing said, Mr. Casey has prepared to the best of his ability the
attached list of potentially responsive documents by general description that he
knows existed at the time he turned over his entire Orlega..Melendres case file to
successor counsel. Ms. Iafrate, last fall. Whether the documents are. in fact.
responsive to paragraph number 2 is not for Mr. Casey to detennine. Whether his
list in fact constitutes the "universe of discovery-related communications" is
unknown.
In addition, please note that Mr. Casey believes the listed documents are protected
from disclosure by the attomey-client and/or work product privilege, and his former

clients are the holders of any applicable privileges.


Please advise if Mr. Casey is required to go to the expense offiling a Motion for
ProtectionIMotion to Quash the Subpoena Duces Tecum as to Attachment A.
paragraph 2. It is my hope that he will not need to incur such personal expense
when Plaintiffs can, and should, obtain the documents directly from current counsel
Ms. Iafrate and her clients, subject to a privilege determination.
I ask that you advise me of your .position on whether it is necessary to file the
foregoing Motion to Quash by June 16,2015.

provided to you via my letter dated May 21, 2015 on the other subjects of the first

I write in response to your letters of May 21, 2015 and June 9,2015, to
Stan Young and Michele Iafrate, concerning Plaintiffs' subpoena duces tecum
appended to the deposition subpoena we served upon your client, Tim Casey.
As you know, Plaintiffs requested that Mr. Casey produce three categories of
documents correlating to the three charged grounds for contempt.

NEW YORK OFFICE


125 BROAD STREET, 18TH FL.

NEW YORK. NY 100042400


WWW.ACLU.ORG

In your letter of May 21, you indicated that Mr. Casey conducted a
search for responsive documents relating to the December 23,2011
preliminary injunction and the May 14,2014 court order pertaining to the
collection of MCSO video recordings, and that he provided those documents
to Michele Iafrate and would not produce any ofthem to Plaintiffs without her
clients' approval. In your letter of June 9,2015, you indicated that Mr. Casey
searched for documents relating to the pretrial discovery issue and similarly
would not produce any documents from his case file without Ms.. Iafrate's
review and Sheriff Arpaio's approval. You further stated that Mr. Casey's
position is that because he turned over his entire case file to the Defendants, it
would be unduly burdensome for him to produce documents in response to
Plaintiffs' request. You provided a priviJege log but indicated that you intend
to file a motion to quash on Mr. Casey's behalf if Plaintiffs continue to seek
documents from him.
Plaintiffs' position is that Mr. Casey has an independent obligation to
search for and t() produce documents in response to the subpoena duces
tecum. While we recognize that there are potential privilege issues that will
require the participation of Ms. Iafrate, we do not believe that absolves Mr.
Casey of his independent duty to respond to Plaintiffs' subpoena.
In addition, we must question the adequacy of Mr. Casey's search
based upon the privilege logs you provided. For example, the privilege log
relating to the pretrial discovery issue lists documents only up through August
2010. In addition, the list of documents relating to the preliminary injunction

includes only six documents, which on its face, and based on other documents
produced by MCSO (e.g., Sergeant Palmer's "training scenarios" and
discussions in the fall of2012), does not seem likely to capture all of the
documents that Mr. Casey would have as the Defendants' counsel with
respect to the issue ofthe preHminary injunction order. It also does not
include any reference to time or billing records, as requested. Similarly, it
does not seem plausible that Mr. Casey only had five documents relating to
the May 14, 2014 court order. We wonder whether a complete search of Mr.
Casey's electronic files. including backup files and document archives, has
been done. These might include documents that were not in the official "file"
that Mr. Casey.provided to Ms. Iafrate.
In short, it appears that Mr. Casey's search was not adequate, and
Plaintiffs do intend to pursue responsive documents from Mr. Casey. We
remain willing to meet and confer further on this issue if you believe it would
be helpful prior to the filing of a motion to quash.
Sincerely,

Cecillia Wang

Dear Ms. Wang:


In response to your letter dated June 16. 2015, Mr. Casey understands and
appreciates his obligations concerning the subpoenas issued to him. In fact, I am
advising him on his duties in response to the subpoenas and to his fonner clients.
Mr. Casey has previously provided you with a detailed listing of the universe of
potentially responsive documents that he has at his finn in regards to the December
23,2011 Preliminary Injunction and the May 14,2014 Court Order (as well as the
Grissom-related information sought by your original subpoena). While you
question the adequacy of Mr. Casey's searcQ on those subjects, the fad is Mr.
Casey's search was extensive, exhaustive. expensive and complete. The search
included his firm's electronic files. including backup files and document archives.
You have a list of what he has on those subjec~. He cannot give .you what he does
not have. If other docunlents exist, he does not have them and they are not on his
firm's system. In summary, your statement that "it appears that Mr. Casey's search
was not adequate" is mistaken.
As for the privilege issues on these subject matters, that is for you and defense
counsel to resolve. Mr. Casey is not at liberty to produce documents from his list of
potentially responsive documents that his fonner clients claim are protected from
disclosure by the attorney-client privilege and/or work-product priVilege. When you
and defense counsel resolve the privilege issues, or the Court rules on such issues,
then - and only then - can Mr. Casey properly and ethically produce documents.
Regarding documents for which there is no privilege asserted by Mr. Casey's
former clients. or docunlents i"()r which the Court has already ruled that privilege is
waived, then Mr. Casey obviously can directly produce those documents prior to his
deposition. I expect that you and defense counsel will provide me with a list of the
documents included in Mr. Casey's prior lists. which the parties have agreed may be
produced by Mr. Casey.

ADAMS & CLARK,

In regards to your stated concern about the pretrial discovery search conducted by
Mr. Casey in response to your latest subpoena, you have been provided a detailed
privilege log of the dOCWllcnts that Mr. Casey believes may be potentially
responsive. It is unreasonable and unduly burdensome (and expensive) to ask him
to continue to search for specific documents that may be or may not be on his finn's
electronic system for a time period ranging multiple years. As for your specific
concern that the "privilege log relating to the pretrial discovery issue lists documents
only up through August 2010" - that concern is misplaced. Mr. Casey advises me
that he withdrew from the case 011 August 13, 2010 and did not again make an
appearance in the case until December 21, 2010. He therefore lacks documents for
the time period he was not counsel on the case. When Mr. Casey returned to the
case in late 2010, I am advised that fact discovery had ended and expert deposition
discovery only was taking place. As such, he lacks other potentially responsive
documents to include in his privilege log.
After you have a chance to consider the foregoing, please call me to discuss. After
we meet and confer, and if we cmmot agree, then Mr. Casey will file a Motion to
Quash the subpoena as to the pretrial discovery issue to the extent you are requiring
Mr. Casey do anything in addition to producing for you the detailed discovery
related privilege log he has provided. The grounds for such motion will center on
undue burden and expense. On the other hand, there may be a potential solution to
this issue. That issue centers on who bears the cost of the additional work. you seem
to want performed. Are plainti tfs' willing to compensate Mr. Casey and his firm for
their time in doing the additional work you seek? If so we might be able to reach an
agreement on a not~to~exceed amount. Please advise.
Finally, based on the competing interests of Plaintiffs and Mr. Casey's fonner
clients, it bears repeating that it is important - if not essential- that the Court attend
Mr. Casey's deposition whenever it is reset. Absent the Court's attendance to make
real-time rulings on obje('1iolls and instructions not to answer on the grounds of
privilege or client confidentiality by either defense counselor me, there is a real risk
the deposition will prove a waste of time. As you might expect, my client wants to
avoid mUltiple or piecemeal depositions.
Sincerely,

~

I write in response to Karen's letter of June 18, 2015. Thank you for
your quick response.

NEW YORK OFFICE


125 BROAD STREET, 18TH Flo

First, on the adequacy of Mr. Casey's search, we do not doubt that Mr.
Casey understands his obligations under the subpoenas that Plaintiffs have
served upon him. I hope he understands our concerns about the adequacy of
the search are based upon the known existence of documents that we have
obtained from the Defendants, which should also be in his possession.
However, at this time, based upon his representations in Karen's letter of June
18, we will not take further action but will reserve the issue for a later time.

NEW YORK, NY 10004-2400


WWW.ACLU.ORG

As for the privilege issues, we understand Mr. Casey's position that


Michele and her clients should undertake that priviIegereview. I therefore
direct this letter to Michele, as well. Please let us know whether that review is
underway and whether and when Defendants will agree to production of any
of the documents on the privilege log. In light ofthe Court's prior rulings on
privilege issues, we expect that both your clients will agree to pr.oduce some
ofthose documents and we request that you do so expeditiously so that we can
be ready to take Mr. Casey's deposition at the earliest opportunity after the
Sheriff's recusal motion is decided.
Sincerely,

Cecillia Wang

Re:

I am in receipt of your letter dated June 19, 2015, in which you state:

First, on the adequacy of Mr. Casey's search, we do not doubt that Mr.
Casey understands his obligations under the subpoenas that Plaintiffs
have served upon him. I hope he understands our concerns about the
adequacy of the search are based upon the .known existence of
documents that we have obtained from the Defendants, which should

If you will provide me with either: (1) the documents you base your concern on or;
(2) their date and author, Mr. Casey agrees to conduct a pinpoint search for whether
he has such documents on his finn's electronic system, or whether they are in the
case file he tumed over to successor counsel, and no longer in his possession.

1look forward to hearing from you.
