Update:  On June 5, 2014, DP&L filed a memorandum contra the Office of the Ohio Consumers’ Counsel’s (OCC) motion to compel responses to discovery.  As it previously argued in the context of a related case, DP&L contended in its memorandum contra that the Commission should deny OCC’s motion to compel because (1) the Commission has not decided whether to hold a hearing on the matter, and (2) even if discovery is allowed, many of OCC’s discovery requests are objectionable and unduly burdensome.  On June 12, 2014, OCC filed a reply to DP&L’s memorandum contra, contending, among other things, that discovery rights are not limited when the Commission requests that parties file comments or when a hearing has not yet been scheduled.
