Dada v. Children's National Medical Center11/2/2000
inors. But be that as it may, the Court in Haqq in footnote four recognized that this Court . . . retain substantial discretion in dealing with improper conduct by attorneys even if these sanctions have negative consequences for the children.
he Court has balanced the factors as best as it can, including the fact that this involves a minor. . . . So the Court feels strongly that to permit the reopening of discovery at this late date would be effectively to say because a minor is involved . . . there need be no showing of good cause or excusable neglect.
This discourse reveals that the trial judge appropriately considered and weighed the minor status of the injured litigant. See id. at 914. The trial court's ruling, therefore, was entirely consistent with the guidance provided in Dada I and the legal principles in Haqq.
Affirmed.
