Mizelle overrules and denies the judgment holder's objections to several orders by a magistrate judge in his action alleging efforts to evade enforcements of his judgment, and adopts the magistrate judge's report and recommendation resolving the parties' cross-motions for summary judgment. The judgment holder has not shown that a denial of a discovery request substantially harmed his case, nor that his proposed discovery was relevant and proportional. As to a second discovery request, the judgment holder has not shown that he had any right to more documents than the defendants produced, and his objections to a protective order were mooted along with the order itself. His objections to an order granting the defendants' motion to compel are also moot, and the magistrate judge correctly found that the defendants did not breach a confidentiality provision in the parties' agreement.
