OSSIPEE — A Superior Court judge said he has “run out of patience” with discovery disputes and moved to close the record in a lawsuit brought by James Pietrangelo, denying a motion to reconsider and pushing the case toward summary judgment.

Judge Mark Attorri said Aug. 6 that the parties should prepare for summary judgment after Bartlett attorney James Pietrangelo, who appeared in court by video conference from Germany,  declined the state's latest offer to make former New Hampshire Department of Transportation Commissioner Bill Cass available for a deposition later this month.
