ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFFS' FIRST MOTION TO COMPEL DISCOVERY
John H. Chun, United States District Judge
The matter comes before the Court on Plaintiffs' First Motion to Compel Discovery. Dkt. # 30. Defendant has not filed a response to the motion, which the Court construes as a concession that the motion has merit. See LCR 7(b)(2) (“[I]f a party fails to file papers in opposition to a motion, such failure may be considered by the court as an admission that the motion has merit.”).
For the reasons provided by Plaintiffs, see Dkt. # 30, the Court GRANTS the motion. The Court DIRECTS Defendant to produce all responsive documents and information without objections by July 31, 2024.
Further, the Court GRANTS Plaintiffs' request for reasonable expenses, including attorney's fees, caused by Defendant's failure to fully respond to Plaintiffs' discovery requests. See Fed.R.Civ.P. 37(d)(3). Plaintiffs shall submit a declaration detailing the fees and costs incurred by July 24, 2024. Defendant may file an objection by July 31, 2024. Plaintiff may reply to any objection by August 2, 2024.
