J. Holmes partially grants the individual plaintiff's motion for attorney fees in connection with his motion to compel discovery. The court previously ordered the defendant company to produce certain documents and "to make a corporate representative available" to provide testimony on certain topics. The defendant company now argues that there was a conflict regarding its duties under Italian data privacy laws, but the court concludes that its failure to provide certain documents was not "substantially justified." Not all of the requested fees are reasonable, however, as a discovery sanction.
