- ilnd;;1:11-cv-08020_de84 RegisterActionDescriptionText "MINUTE entry before the Honorable Arlander Keys: Hearing held on Plaintiff's Motion For a Protective Order Regarding Defendants' Expert Witness Fees # 81 . The motion is granted in part. Defendants have disclosed a medical expert, Dr. Joseph Mitton, to give testimony in this case. Plaintiff's counsel was appointed by the Court to represent him, for which he is not being paid, and he has already expended a substantial amount in costs. Dr. Mittons regular rateand the rate which he charged or will charge Defendants for his record review, preparation/meeting for deposition, and his deposition timeis $432.00 to $540.00 per hour. The Court does not question the reasonableness of these rates as applied to Dr. Mitton's regular clients. However, in the circumstances of this case, where Plaintiff is incarcerated and appointed counsel is not being compensated and must pay out of his firm's account, and where the Court finds that manifest injustice would result if counsel were unable to take the deposition of Dr. Mitton, the Court finds that the hourly rate is not reasonable as applied to Plaintiff in this case. Therefore, Dr. Mitton will be deposed by March 31,2014,for which he will be paid up to $1,000 total for the time spent in deposition. Plaintiff will disclose his expert, if any, by April 25, 2014. Status hearing set for April 25 at 9:00am to stand. Mailed notice (tlp, ) (Entered: 02/14/2014)" @default.
