August 26, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 10 MINUTE ORDER IN CHAMBERS by Judge Otis D. Wright, II: ORDER REGARDING PROSECUTION OF CERTAIN CASES UNDER THE AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT. (SEE DOCUMENT SPECIFICS). The Court finds that there is good cause to institute a limited scheduling order concerning basic case prosecution for cases under the Americans With Disabilities Act involving physical barriers in places of public accommodation. In such cases: 1. Proofs of Service: Proofs of service for all defendants must be filed within 95 days. 2.Requests for Default: For any defendant who fails to respond to the complaint within the time provided by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and for whom no extension has been granted, a request for default must be filed no later than five court days after the time the response to the complaint would have been due. 3. Motions for Default Judgment: If only defaulted defendants remain in the case i.e., no other defendants were named or the claims against all other defendants have been resolved either by dismissal, motion, or trial a motion for default judgment must be filed within 10 calendar days of the last entry of default. Note that the Court is not generally inclined to enter partial default judgments, and, therefore, a motion for default judgment should not be filed if some defendants have appeared and the case has not otherwise been completely resolved. The failure to comply with this Order in a particular case will result in a sanction of $300.00 payable to the clerk of the court within two weeks of Plaintiff being given notice of noncompliance and dismissal for lack of prosecution. The Court finds these sanctions sufficient and necessary to deter violations of the Order and to achieve timely prosecution of these cases without unnecessary intervention by the Court. (lc)
