On December 27, 2011, this Court moved to sever Plaintiff Welden's case.
Plaintiffs Carl Swensson and Kevin Richard Powell have moved for a separate

Order on Motion to Take Depositions  3 Jan 2012
OFFICE OF STATE ADMINISTRATIVE HEARINGS
STATE OF GEORGIA

ORDER
Plaintiffs Swensson and Powell move for leave to take the deposition of Michael R.
Berlon, Brian Kemp, and Defendant Barack Obama. In support of their motion, the Plaintiffs state that Michael R. Berlon's affidavit was attached to Defendant's motion to dismiss. Accordingly, the Plaintiffs' argue, to respond to the motion to dismiss properly, it is necessary and just to take Michael R. Berlon's deposition.

Earlier today, the Court dismissed Defendant's motion to dismiss. Therefore, it is no
longer necessary for the Plaintiffs to file a response to the Defendant's motion.

The Plaintiffs' motion to take deposition is DENIED.

SO ORDERED, this the 3rd day of January, 2011.

20 January 2012
Order on Motion to Quash Suboenas 20 Jan 2012
Defendant, President Barack Obama, a candidate seeking the Democratic nomination for the office of the President of the United States, has filed a motion to quash the subpoena compelling his attendance at the hearing on January 26, 2012. In support of his motion, Defendant argues that "if enforced, [the subpoena] requires him to interrupt duties as President of the United States" to attend a hearing in Atlanta, Georgia. However, Defendant fails to provide any legal authority to support his motion to quash the subpoena to attend. Defendant's motion suggests that no President should be compelled to attend a Court hearing. This may be correct. But Defendant has failed to enlighten the Court with any legal authority. Specifically, Defendant has failed to cite to any legal authority evidencing why his attendance is "unreasonable or oppressive, or that the testimony... [is] irrelevant, immaterial, or cumulative and unnecessary to a party's preparation or presentation at the hearing, or that basic fairness dictates that the subpoena should not be enforced." Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. r. 616-1-2-.19(5).
Defendant further alludes to a defect in service of the subpoena. However, the Court's rules provide for service of a subpoena upon a party, by serving the party's counsel of record. Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. r. 616-1-2-.19(4). Thus, the argument regarding service is without merit.
Accordingly, Defendant's motion to quash is denied.

SO ORDERED, this the 20th day of January, 2012.
MICHAEL M. MALIHI, Judge



23 January 2012
I have hand delivered and successfully served the subpoena for court appearance on Thursday, January 26th to Secretary of State Brian Kemp in his office at the Georgia State Capitol on this day January 23rd, 2012 at 3:56 pm in the presence of his General Counsel Vincent Russo and three witnesses.  A scanned copy is attached to this email.

Kevin R. Powell
