CLAIM NO SHERWIN WILLIAMS 010733-000771--WC--01 Dear Ms. Fleming: As you are aware, the deposition of the applicant in the above- referenced matter was set for December 2, 1991, at 2:00 p.m., in our offices. We received a telephone call from applicant's counsel's office stating that they would not appear because they were unwilling to accept a deposition date other than April of 1992. I have prepared a motion to compel applicant's appearance at deposition and I will file said motion with the Board. Once I am in receipt of the Board's decision, I will advise you immediately. In the interim, please issue a denial based upon applicant's failure to cooperate with discovery. I note that you received applicant's claim form on September 18, 1991, but we do not know when the claim form was filed. Therefore, the longest period of time that we would have to issue a denial would be 90 days from September 18, 1991. In excess of caution, I recommend that you try to issue a denial before the 10th of December, if possible. Please contact me if you have any questions. Very truly yours, LAW OFFICES OF TAPPIN & BARLING A Professional Corporation Tpriy Colangelo; Sherwin Williams Company N40201
