On the ___ of [Month, Year], the Court heard the Petition of __________, requesting authority to take the deposition of three individuals associated with _________ Medical Center, to investigate a potential claim or suit.
It appearing to the Court that notice of this hearing has been duly and timely served on all parties entitled to notice, the Court considered the pleadings on file and heard the arguments of counsel.
