   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  22-2533
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Central   
   [PUBLISHED] [Kelly, Author, with Gruender and Arnold, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Civil rights. When a defendant failed to complete her 
   deposition, plaintiff never moved to compel her to continue the 
   deposition, and the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying 
   his motion for sanctions against the defendant in the absence of any 
   showing of prejudice; the district court did not abuse its discretion in 
   denying plaintiff's motion to compel the deposition of a special agent of 
   the Arkansas State Police; the agent testified at trial, and plaintiff 
   could not show how the absence of pre-trial discovery concerning the 
   agent's testimony resulted in fundamental unfairness at trial; plaintiff's 
   motion to stay summary judgment for additional discovery did not comply 
   with Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(d) and did not show how the information was 
   relevant to rebut defendants' motion for summary judgment; as a result, 
   the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion; the 
   summary judgment record showed that plaintiff was not engaging in First 
   Amendment protected speech when he gave a video of a police pursuit to a 
   fellow officer; in rejecting plaintiff's Arkansas Whistleblower claim, a 
   reasonable jury could find that he failed to satisfy his burden of proof 
   to show his report was made in good faith.
