ORDER OF THE BOARD

(by 3. Anderson):

The August 15, 1985 renewed application of Cynthia and

Ernest Carpenter for leave to

intervene as complainants

in this

action is granted.

Respondent’s August 12,

1985 motion to dismiss

or

alternatively to require a more definite response is denied.

As

noted

in complainant’s August

15 response,

the Board had ruled on

the bulk of the

issues presented in a similar motion directed

to

the initial

complaint, which motion was denied

by the Board June

27.

The August

15, 1985 motion

to quash the notice of deposition

for Mr.

Ed Steagall and the August 20 response thereto are

referred

to the Hearing Officer

for disposition: discovery

motions

of this type should be directed to the Hearing Officer

in

the first

instance.

Finally, the Board declines at this time

to impose the

sanctions requested in complainant’s August 15 motion.

In

so

ruling,

it is not

the intent of the Board

to countenance

discovery delay; respondent

is directed

to respond

to discovery

requests expeditiously.

Complainant

is given leave

to renew

its

motion in the event of non compliance with this directive.

IT

IS SO ORDERED.
