Defendant's motion to amend its answer to include inequitable conduct was denied. "As this court has explained before, a party does not show good cause for an untimely amendment simply by arguing that the other party was slow in providing discovery. . . [and] prejudice to plaintiff is almost certain because the deadline for filing a motion for summary judgment has passed, which means that plaintiff would be unable to obtain a ruling on this issue before trial."
Orbital Technologies Corp v. PFO Lighting Inc., 3-08-cv-00220 (WIWD February 6, 2009, Order)
