Cuypers v. Taylor Deposition Scheduling Email (August 28, 2025)

This document is an email dated August 28, 2025, filed as Exhibit 27-2 in the federal civil case Cuypers v. Taylor et al., Case No. 3:24-cv-00743. The email concerns deposition scheduling and was authored by attorney Nora Snyder of the People’s Law Office. It reflects routine but significant pretrial coordination among counsel in a case involving City of Superior officials and police personnel.

The email is addressed to multiple attorneys, including counsel for the defendants, and copies additional legal representatives involved in the matter. The named defendants referenced for depositions include Taylor, Gard, and Brown. In addition, the email identifies City of Superior police officers Jason Moen and Dylan Crist, as well as Superior Police Chief Paul Winterscheidt, as intended deponents. The correspondence assumes that defense counsel will represent these city employees for purposes of their depositions.

The primary purpose of the email is to request mutually agreeable dates for conducting depositions within a specified window, between September 22 and October 17, 2025. The author emphasizes efficiency and cooperation by asking for as many available dates as possible to reduce back-and-forth scheduling. The email also clarifies that all depositions are intended to be conducted remotely via Zoom.

From a government accountability perspective, this document is relevant because it demonstrates formal discovery efforts to obtain sworn testimony from city officials and law enforcement personnel in federal litigation. The scheduling of depositions for police officers and the police chief underscores the role of discovery in examining municipal conduct and oversight. The email does not resolve any disputes but sets the groundwork for testimony that may later inform motions, trial proceedings, or public understanding of the case.
