MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
FACCIOLA, United States Magistrate Judge.
Before me are several motions in limine; Defendant's Motion in Limine [# 70] and Plaintiff's Motions in Limine, First through Fourth [# 66], [# 67], [It 68], and [# 69]. For the reasons stated herein, all motions will be denied.
I. Defendant's Motion in Limine
A. Preclusion of Gipson's Testimony Relating to Health
Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. ("Wells Fargo") moves in limine to preclude Gipson from offering evidence as to (1) her surgery for breast cancer; (2) that she was treated by a psychotherapist; (3) suffered hair loss and (4) was involved in a car accident. Wells Fargo insists that there is no evidence whatsoever that her termination caused any of these events. Gipson concedes as much but insists that she has the right to have the jury know of her condition prior to her termination so that it can fairly judge what it should award her for *13 the emotional distress that her termination caused her. Gipson counters that defendant "takes her as it finds her" and is responsible for all damages proximately caused, even if her mental state was already fragile.
Gipson is right and Wells Fargo cannot challenge that principle. By the same token, I will make sure that the jury understands the reason for the admission of such evidence and caution them, as I always do, that their verdict may not be based on sympathy for any person or prejudice against her.
B. Preclusion of Gipson's Testimony Regarding Her Job Performance
Wells Fargo also tries to preclude Gipson from testifying or producing witnesses attesting to her performance of her duties. It also contends that she should not be able to compare her qualifications with the person who got the job that she" did not. Gipson counters that she intends to rely on evaluations by Wells Fargo and, in any event, she has the right to testify about her own performance and qualifications.
In my view, the parties are mistakenly relying on discrimination or retaliation cases that deal with whether plaintiff, confronted with a motion for summary judgment, has presented sufficient evidence to create a genuine issue of material fact. In such a situation, a plaintiff's evaluation of her own abilities and vis-a-vis someone else may not create such a genuine issue. It hardly follows, however, that a plaintiff cannot point to her boss's evaluation of her performance, her own evaluation of that performance, and her qualifications vis-a-vis someone else's performance and evaluation. Surely, such testimony is relevant; without it, one wonders how a plaintiff in a discrimination or retaliation case could make her case.
Defendant's Motion in Limine is denied.[1]
II. Plaintiff's First and Second Motions in Limine
In my Memorandum Opinion denying Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment, I concluded that whether persons proposed to be comparators to plaintiff are similarly situated is a question of fact for the jury. Hence, since I cannot say as a matter of law that they cannot be compared, I will not preclude either party from drawing comparisons between plaintiff and other persons. Again, I note that a court's saying, as a matter of law, that no reasonable person could find plaintiff similarly situated to another person in the context of ruling on a motion for summary judgment is entirely different from its precluding a party from presenting evidence at trial that makes that comparison and permits the finder of fact to determine whether the two persons can be legitimately compared.
Plaintiff's First and Second Motions in Limine are denied.
III. Plaintiff's Third Motion in Limine
Gipson seeks to exclude certain witnesses and evidence allegedly not produced or not timely disclosed by Wells Fargo.
In its answer to the complaint in this action, Wells Fargo asserted as potential defenses after-acquired evidence and failure to mitigate damages. On April 12, 2006, I held a conference with counsel to resolve outstanding discovery problems. One of those problems was whether the defendant had any evidence as to mitigation of damages and after-acquired evidence, *14 i.e., misconduct other than that which led to her discharge. Plaintiff's counsel wrote a letter dated April 12, 2006, summarizing the issue that had been resolved. It indicated that defendant has neither responsive information nor documents pertaining to mitigation of damages but that it would provide "any such responsive materials by way of supplementary discovery response no later than 7 days from the close of discovery."[2]
During her deposition, plaintiff revealed that she had been involuntarily discharged from her position as a loan originator at North American Mortgage in 1996, the job she held immediately before she worked for Wells Fargo. In her application for employment with Wells Fargo, plaintiff indicated her employment at North American Mortgage but left blank the box where she was requested to provide "Reason for Leaving."[3] The application warned her that misrepresentation of any of the contents of the application was cause for termination; she indicated by her signature that her answers on the application were true and correct and that she had not knowingly withheld any fact or circumstance that would, if disclosed, affect her application unfavorably.[4]
During the deposition, plaintiff indicated that after she was not promoted she never sought the Branch Manager post on with Wells Fargo, even after the man who got it left Wells Fargo in 2001. Wells Fargo seeks to offer that statement insisting that it bears on mitigation of damages.
As to the latter, there is no reason to resolve the question because mitigation of damages goes to the back pay award that I will resolve if liability is established. See Lebron v. Powell, 217 F.R.D. 72 (D.D.C. 2003). As to the former, within the deadline specified in the Seldon letter quoted above and in response to interrogatory number 7, Wells Fargo advised Seldon that it would assert that plaintiff would have been terminated for omitting the fact that she was involuntarily terminated from North American Mortgage on her employment application.[5]
Despite that disclosure, plaintiff moves to preclude Wells Fargo from asserting that defense and using the application as evidence for not disclosing it earlier than it did.
The claim rings hollow.
First, an interrogatory asked plaintiff to identify every employer through whom she gained experience in real estate, real estate financing, and management, and plaintiff did not even mention North American Mortgage, although in her application for employment she stated "originates mortgage loans" when she was asked for a "Brief description of your responsibilities."[6]
Second, plaintiff does not deny nor can she that Wells Fargo did not know that her termination was the reason for leaving North American Mortgage until her deposition; she had, after all, left the section of the application that asked for that information blank. It was impossible for Wells Fargo to disclose what it did not know until plaintiff's deposition.
Plaintiff's Third Motion in Limine is denied.
*15 IV. Plaintiff's Fourth Motion in Limine
Gipson seeks to limit the timing of testimony by a witness for Wells Fargo. I do not impose time limitations on a witness's testimony shorter than the time listed in the pre-trial statement by the party who will call that witness. I think that counsel should try their cases as they see fit. If they do not know when they are belaboring an issue and spending too much time on it, juries have a remarkable ability to let them know. Verbum sapientiae satis.
Plaintiff's Fourth Motion in Limine is denied.
