SUMMONS Issued as to Defendant The Partnerships and Unincorporated Associations Identified on Schedule A

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: The Court reviewed the status report. (Dckt. No. 18) On April 8, 2024, the Court entered a minute order granting a motion for expedited discovery and electronic service of process. (Dckt. No. 16) Months passed, and Plaintiff did nothing. "On July 17, 2024, Plaintiff's counsel emailed the Courtroom Deputy to inform the Court that no discovery had been taken since the proposed order had not yet been entered." That's wrong. A minute order is an order. That's why it is called a minute "order." This Court does not have to use Plaintiff's preferred template or draft when ruling on motions. Doing so would add unnecessary administrative burdens in already burdensome Schedule A litigation. This Court disposed of the motion by minute order, and that ruling sufficed. Going forward, counsel must proceed accordingly, and must not ask for orders in a preferred format without a good reason. Plaintiff must proceed with the case with all due haste. A status report is due by August 16, 2024. The Court will consider the possibility of dismissing the case for want of prosecution if there is anything less than substantial progress. Mailed notice

STATUS Report by Lucia Heffernan

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: On April 8, 2024, this Court entered an order granting Plaintiff's motion for expedited discovery and authorizing electronic service of process under Rule 4(f). Since then, over three months have passed, and Plaintiff has filed nothing. Worse yet, Plaintiff has not filed an affidavit of service, so the Court has no idea if Plaintiff took care of getting Defendant into the lawsuit. Plaintiff must file a status report by July 19, 2024. Plaintiff must show cause why the complaint should not be dismissed and the case should not be closed for want of prosecution. A failure to comply will lead to dismissal. Mailed notice

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: Plaintiff's motion for leave to expedite discovery and motion for leave for electronic service of process under Rule 4(f)(3) (Dckt. No. 11) is hereby granted. Mailed notice

ANNUAL REMINDER: Pursuant to Local Rule 3.2 (Notification of Affiliates), any nongovernmental party, other than an individual or sole proprietorship, must file a statement identifying all its affiliates known to the party after diligent review or, if the party has identified no affiliates, then a statement reflecting that fact must be filed. An affiliate is defined as follows: any entity or individual owning, directly or indirectly (through ownership of one or more other entities), 5% or more of a party. The statement is to be electronically filed as a PDF in conjunction with entering the affiliates in CM/ECF as prompted. As a reminder to counsel, parties must supplement their statements of affiliates within thirty (30) days of any change in the information previously reported. This minute order is being issued to all counsel of record to remind counsel of their obligation to provide updated information as to additional affiliates if such updating is necessary. If counsel has any questions regarding this process, this LINK will provide additional information. Signed by the Executive Committee on 12/28/2023: Mailed notice.

MAILED copyright report to Registrar, Washington DC.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: An initial status report is due by December 1, 2023. Counsel must read the Standing Order entitled "Initial Status Conferences and Joint Initial Status Reports" on the Court's website. The parties must confer as required by Rule 26(f) about the nature, scope, and duration of discovery. The parties must submit two documents to the Court. First, the parties must file the Joint Initial Status Report under Rule 26(f) on the docket. A Word version of the Joint Initial Status Report is available on the Court's website. All parties must participate in the preparation and filing of the Joint Initial Status Report. The Court requires a joint report, so a filing by one side or the other is not sufficient. Second, the parties must email a Word version of a proposed Scheduling Order under Rule 16(b) to the Court's proposed order inbox. Lead counsel for the parties must participate in filing the initial status report. Plaintiff must serve this Order on all other parties. If the defendant has not been served with process, plaintiff's counsel must contact the Courtroom Deputy at jessica_j_ramos@ilnd.uscourts.gov to reschedule the initial status report deadline. Plaintiff should not file the Joint Initial Status Report before the defendant(s) has been served with process. The parties must discuss settlement in good faith and make a serious attempt to resolve this case amicably. All counsel of record must read and comply with this Court's Standing Orders on its webpage. Please pay special attention to the Standing Orders about Depositions and Discovery. Mailed notice
