Discovery motions heard in Gibbs vs Gabehart case

The Joe Gibbs Racing v Chris Gabehart and Spire Motorsports lawsuit heard arguments over expedited discovery motions in court on Monday morning before Judge Susan Courtwright Rodriguez.

The docket also called for arguments over a preliminary injunction motion but all parties in court agreed that the discovery motion’s importance was of greater priority and the results could affect the course of future hearings so it was tabled to the end of the month instead.

Ultimately, after hearing the arguments from Cary B. Davis (Gabehart), Sarah F. Hutchins (Gibbs) and John S. Gibbs III (Spire), Judge Rodriguez allowed for both a narrowly tailored expedited discovery on Gabehart and a narrowly tailored reciprocal discovery on JGR.
