June 4, 2026 Opinion or Order Filing 4 ORDER: These appeals are CONSOLIDATED for purposes of briefing and disposition. The briefing schedule is as follows: 1. Defendants shall file their opening brief and required short appendix in the main appeal docketed as No. 26-2190 on or before July 13, 2026. 2. Plaintiff shall file his combined responsive brief in the main appeal and opening brief and appendix in the cross-appeal docketed as No. 26-2191 on or before August 12, 2026. 3. Defendants shall file their reply brief, if any, in the main appeal and responsive brief in the cross-appeal on or before September 11, 2026. 4. Plaintiff shall file his reply brief, if any, in the cross-appeal on or before October 2, 2026. A review of the short records reveals that these appeals involve more than one defendant represented by different counsel. Counsel for defendants are encouraged to avoid unnecessary duplication by filing a joint brief or a joint appendix or by adopting parts of a co-defendants 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.
