November 14, 2024 Opinion or Order Filing 3 ORDER: The court, on its own motion, orders these appeals are CONSOLIDATED for purposes of briefing and disposition. A preliminary review of the short records indicates that the judgments in these cases are deficient. A judgment must provide relief to which the prevailing party is entitled. Hyland v. Liberty Mutual Fire Ins. Co. , 885 F.3d 482, 483 (7th Cir. 2018). In particular, Rule 65(d) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure requires (among other things) that an order granting an injunction state its terms specifically and describe in reasonable detail the acts restrained or required. The injunction must be set forth in a document separate from the courts opinion. MillerCoors LLC v. Anheuser-Busch Companies, LLC , 940 F.3d 922 (7th Cir. 2019). The separate judgments entered in these cases fail to provide any relief and merely state that judgment is entered in favor of each of the plaintiffs against certain defendants. Accordingly, both appellants and appellees each shall file, on or before December 2, 2024, a brief memorandum stating why this appeal should not be remanded to the district court to enter a proper judgment. Briefing is SUSPENDED pending further court order. JXK [3] [7417729] [24-3060, 24-3061, 24-3062, 24-3063] (PS) [Entered: 11/14/2024 09:57 AM]
