Discovery In Disability Suit Is Not Warranted, California Federal Judge Determines

OAKLAND, Calif. - A California federal judge on Nov. 25 denied a disability claimant's request to conduct discovery after determining that the claimant failed to prove that additional evidence is necessary to conduct an adequate de novo review (Natalya Vigdorchik v. Liberty Life Assurance Company of Boston, et al., No. 19-3891, N.D. Calif., 2019 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 204512).
