| Filing 20 RESPONSE to Special Defenses by Edith Gorski. (Diaz-Hennessey, Dorothy) |
| Filing 19 DEMAND for Trial by Jury by Edith Gorski. (Diaz-Hennessey, Dorothy) |
| Filing 18 AMENDED GENERAL SCHEDULING ORDER: The parties' Rule 26(f) Planning Report (Doc. # 16 ) is hereby APPROVED as modified by this order. All discovery shall be completed by December 31, 2019, and all other interim discovery dates set forth in the parties' Rule 26(f) Report are hereby adopted. A telephonic status conference will be held on September 27, 2019 at 4:00pm. Plaintiff shall initiate call. Once all parties are on the line, please call chambers at (203) 773-2105. Any dispositive summary judgment motions shall be filed by 30 days after the close of discovery on January 29, 2020, and any response to dispositive summary judgment motions shall be filed within 30 days by February 28, 2020. The parties' joint trial memorandum is due by 30 days after the close of discovery on January 29, 2020, or within 30 days of the Court's ruling on dispositive summary judgment motions, whichever date is later. The Court will thereafter set a trial date, and the parties should be prepared to proceed to jury selection within 30 days of the filing of the joint trial memorandum. Please refer to Judge Meyer's webpage on the District of Connecticut website for Judge Meyer's "Instructions for Discovery Disputes" and "Instructions for Joint Trial Memorandum" and "Pretrial Preferences" and "Trial Preferences." The parties are encouraged to commence discovery forthwith and to arrange their schedules in contemplation of the briefing deadlines for any dispositive motions, because the Court is unlikely to grant a future request for an extension of the scheduling order absent extraordinary and unforeseeable circumstances. It is so ordered.(Gutierrez, Y.) |

Filing 11
ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE RE BASIS FOR FEDERAL JURISDICTION. This is a personal injury case involving a claim that plaintiff was injured by falling merchandise in a Target store. Defendant has removed this case from state court. Plaintiff's state court complaint alleges that she seeks damages in excess of $15,000. It is unclear from the nature of plaintiff's allegations in the complaint if the genuine amount in controversy in this case is more than $75,000 as required for federal diversity jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1332. Accordingly, the parties shall each file responses to this order to show cause by January 23, 2019, adducing any evidence (such as sworn affidavits, medical records, etc.) bearing on the issue of the amount in controversy and setting forth any legal arguments bearing on the Court's consideration of this issue. See also Luce v. Kohl's Dept. Stores, Inc., 23 F. Supp. 3d 82 (D. Conn. 2014). The Court may rule on the basis of such evidence or, if uncertainty remains, schedule a future evidentiary hearing on this issue. If, however, plaintiff believes that the amount in controversy is less than $75,000, then she may file a stipulation agreeing not to seek more than $75,000 in total damages in the event that the Court remands the case to state court. (Show Cause Response due by 1/23/2019) Signed by Judge Jeffrey A. Meyer on 1/16/2019.(Gutierrez, Y.)
