Has anyone else seen this ChangeStudyServlet.java exception in their logs?

This is a very technical question.

I am seeing the following exception in our logs and was wondering if anyone knows what is causing it. I was not able to reproduce it. In ChangeStudyServlet.java at line 285 it seems that it is trying to get the number of assigned discrepancies, but this is as far as I can go. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
