Thus, with rare exceptions, the Court will entertain such a motion only after production is complete with respect to all requests raised in the case. Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that the parties shall file a Joint Status Report on or before 7/11/2019, which shall contain a proposed schedule for further proceedings that comports with this Minute Order, if litigation is going to be necessary.
