ORDER: The court, on its own motion, orders these appeals are CONSOLIDATED for purposes of briefing and disposition. The briefing schedule is as follows: 1. The appellants shall file brief(s) and required short appendices on or before May 26, 2026. 2. The appellees shall file brief(s) on or before June 25, 2026. 3. The appellants shall file reply brief(s), if any, on or before July 16, 2026. A review of the short records reveals that these appeals involve more than one appellant and appellee represented by different counsel. Counsel are encouraged to avoid unnecessary duplication by filing a joint brief or a joint appendix or by adopting parts of a co-appellants or co-appellees brief. Duplicative briefing will be stricken and may result in disciplinary sanctions against counsel. See United States v. Torres, 170 F.3d 749 (7th Cir. 1999); United States v. Ashman, 964 F.2d 596 (7th Cir. 1992). Appellants, however, may not adopt the Jurisdictional Statement of another. Each appellants brief must include a complete Jurisdictional Statement.
