IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 
FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF TENNESSEE 

WESTERN DIVISION

APR 2  1976 p
r i

CLEAMTEE GARNER, etc.. 
Plaintiff,

V. NO. C-75-145
MEMPHIS POLICE DEPARTMENT, 
et al.,

Defendants.

O R D E R

Following the pre-trial conference in this 
matter, the defendants have filed a communication with the 
Court, a copy to plaintiff's counsel, objecting to the 
request for production of documents No. 14 relating to "all 
documents relating to incidents in which lethal force was 
resorted to" during a specific period. Unless persuaded by 
plaintiff to the contrary, the Court will limit the request 
to requiring the defendants to make available to the 
plaintiff information setting forth each and every incident 
in which lethal force was resorted to, giving the date and 
the officer or officers involved, without producing all 
official investigation reports and citizen complaints 
connected therewith. The defendants will produce, however, 
disciplinary proceedings instituted, if any, against officers 
involved with regard to the episodes of lethal force, during 
said period.

IOg



The plaintiff will advise the Court within ten (10) 
days if the plaintiff objects to the limitation placed upon 
Request No. 14 for production of documents.

This day of April, 1976.
