October 13, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 433 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Jeffrey Cole: Upon receiving the parties' respective submissions in advance of the settlement conference scheduled for 10/14/15, it was immediately apparent that the parties' respective views of the case -- and especially their views about the amounts they might be willing to give and take in order to settle the case -- were so dramatically far apart that a serious question was raised as to whether a settlement conference would have any remote prospect of success. And if it did not, it ought not take place. Not only would that needlessly take counsel's time, but it would needlessly occupy the time of the court. And every hour needlessly spent on a case is an hour that is taken away from other litigants who require the court's attention. See Chicago Observer, Inc. v. City of Chicago, 929 F.2d 325, 329 (7th Cir.1991) (Litigation is costly not only for the litigants but also for parties in other cases waiting in the queue for judicial attention.). Accordingly, I held a telephone conference with counsel in which I asked them to confer and see whether there was any flexibility in their respective positions. With commendable candor, counsel called me this morning to report that despite what I am confident were their genuine efforts to bridge what is plainly an insurmountable chasm, they were unable to make any progress and that they had concluded that a settlement conference would be utterly unproductive. Of course, parties cannot and ought not be pressured into settlements that they believe are not warranted. Goss Graphics Sys., Inc. v. Dev Indus., Inc., 267 F.3d 624, 627 (7th Cir. 2001); Tsironis v.Bismarck Hotel, 1996 WL 15830, at *2 (7th Cir. 1996);. Strandell v. Jackson County, Illinois, 838 F.2d 884,887 (7th Cir. 1988). Since discovery is closed, the referral is closed and the case returned to Judge Lee. Judge Honorable Jeffrey Cole no longer referred to the case.Mailed notice (jms, )

March 24, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 344 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE ORDER: Case referred to the Honorable Jeffrey Cole pursuant to Local Rule 72.1 for Plaintiffs Motion to Compel #338 . Signed by Executive Committee on 03/24/2015. (sxw)
March 23, 2015 Opinion or Order Filing 343 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Jeffrey Cole:The defendants have moved to compel the continued deposition of Marc Kramer #330 . The motion cites a non-binding opinion by Judge Moran from 1987 and a 1989 non-binding opinion by Judge Holderman. The plaintiff (and the defendants) should be prepared at the hearing on the motion on 3/26/15 to address the following more recent -- and more importantly -- binding cases from the Seventh Circuit: (1) Redwood v. Dobson, 476 F.3d 462, 468 (7th Cir. 2007)( Easterbrook, J.):"Webber gave no reason beyond his declaration that the questions were designed to harass rather than obtain information-which may well have been their point, but Fed.R.Civ.P. 30(d) specifies how harassment is to be handled. Counsel for the witness may halt the deposition and apply for a protective order, see Rule 30(d)(4), but must not instruct the witness to remain silent. 'Any objection during a deposition must be stated concisely and in a non-argumentative and non-suggestive manner. A person may instruct a deponent not to answer only when necessary to preserve a privilege, to enforce a limitation directed by the court, or to present a motion under Rule 30(d)(4).' Fed.R.Civ.P. 30(d)(1). Webber violated this rule repeatedly by telling Gerstein not to answer yet never presenting a motion for a protective order. The provocation was clear, but so was Webber's violation." See also Rule 30(c)(2), Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (2014)(specifying the exceedingly limited circumstance in which a lawyer may instruct a witness not to answer). (2) Rickels v. City of South Bend, Indiana, 33 F.3d 785, 786-87 (7th Cir. 1994): 'The great operative principle of Rule 37(a)(4) is that the loser pays.' Charles Alan Wright & Arthur R. Miller, 8 Federal Practice and Procedure 2288 at 787 (1970). Fee shifting when the judge must rule on discovery disputes encourages their voluntary resolution and curtails the ability of litigants to use legal processes to heap detriments on adversaries (or third parties) without regard to the merits of the claims." (Parenthesis in original). See also United States Freight Co. v. Penn Cent. Transp. Co., 716 F.2d 954, 955 (2nd Cir.1983)(General deterrence, rather than mere remediation of the particular parties' conduct, is a goal under Rule 37; unconditional impositions of sanctions are necessary to deter other parties to other lawsuits from flouting other discovery orders of other district courts. ). See also Sambrano v. Mabus 663 F.3d 879, 881-882 (7th Cir. 2011)(Sanctions such as orders to pay the other side's attorneys' fees may redress injuries done to put-upon adversaries....). See Rule 30(d)(3)(C), Federal Rules of Civil Procedure ("Rule 37(a)(5) applies to the award of expenses.") (2014).Mailed notice (lxs, )

May 29, 2013 Opinion or Order Filing 167 MINUTE entry before Honorable Jeffrey Cole: After reviewing the briefs related to the defendant's motion to disqualify counsel, it is apparent that the protagonists, Ms. Wheeler and Mr. Karen, have very different ideas about the nature of their encounter; an encounter which is central to this matter.

April 9, 2013 Opinion or Order Filing 156 MINUTE entry before Honorable Jeffrey Cole: The plaintiffs have filed a motion for leave to exceed L.R. 7.1 #154 which limits page numbers of briefs to 15 pages without leave of court. The plaintiffs "estimate that they will need at least 21 pages for their Opposition," to the motion, but they do not state how many more pages they will need. The motion concludes by asking the court for permission to file a brief "that exceeds the 15 page limit." In effect the motion seeks open-ended permission to file a brief of however number of pages the plaintiff thinks appropriate. The request comes in the face of a 13 page brief by the defendants. Given the length of the defendants' brief, the defendants' open ended request is denied as submitted. Nonetheless, the defendants may file a brief not to exceed 20 pages and which conforms to the requirements of Local Rule 5.2(c) and (d) regarding the format of briefs. No appearance is necessary on 4/16/13.Mailed notice (jms, )

April 1, 2013 Opinion or Order Filing 149 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE ORDER: Case referred to the Honorable Jeffrey Cole pursuant to Local Rule 72.1. Conduct hearings and enter appropriate orders on the following pretrial motion/matter: -Perform such additional duties as are not inconsistent with the Constitution and laws of the United States, as specifically set forth below. Signed by Executive Committee on 4/1/2013. (ph, )
April 1, 2013 Opinion or Order Filing 148 MINUTE entry before Honorable Jeffrey Cole: Motion hearing held. Plaintiff's motion to compel #138 is granted in part and denied in part as discussed in court.Interrogatory #2 is denied; document production requests #10 and 25, are granted except for privileged information supported by a promptly filed privilege log. request #8 is granted to the extent that the additional opt ins must be included.request #15 is deniedrequests to admit #1,2,4,8,19,20,21, and 23 are denied and request to admit #3, 5 are granted as discussed in court. The defendant participated at the hearing today over objection because of its concern that the plaintiff might argue that it constituted a waiver of its pending motion to disqualify plaintiff. I denied that objection and ordered that the hearing proceed. Obviously, the defendants' participation shall not constitute a waiver of the motion to disqualify. With commendable candor, plaintiff's counsel acknowledged that they will make no contention that that participation has any effect on the pending motion to disqualify. The Plaintiff's motion on page 5 alludes to the defendants' claimed failure to "produce electronic discovery" and to schedule depositions. Beyond this generalized assertion, which it is alleged is pursuant to a "self-imposed stay on discovery" designed "to delay this case in hopes that the potential class will dissipate," (Motion at 5-6), there is no amplification of the argument and none of the 11 exhibits supports the claim. Consequently, the argument will not be considered under the familiar principle that skeletal and unsupported arguments are waived. Puffer v. Allstate Ins. Co., 675 F.3d 709, 718 (7th Cir. 2012); Kyles v. J.K. Guardian Sec. Services, 236 F.R.D. 400, 401 (N.D.Ill. 2006)(collecting cases). Any further requests for a judicial ruling on these issues must be preceded by a comprehensive L.R. 37.2 conference. All matters relating to the referral of this case having been resolved, the case is returned to the district judge. Nothing in this order shall, be constituted as expressing any opinion on pre-class certification discovery. Judge Honorable Jeffrey Cole no longer referred to the case.Mailed notice (jms, )
April 1, 2013 Opinion or Order Filing 147 MINUTE entry before Honorable John Z. Lee: Defendants' motion for disqualification #141 is referred to Magistrate Judge Cole. No appearance is required on 4/2/13.Mailed notice (ca, )
March 26, 2013 Opinion or Order Filing 146 MINUTE entry before Honorable Jeffrey Cole: The plaintiff has filed a Motion to Compel Responses to Discovery Requests and Depositions #138 . Judge Lee referred the matter here on 3/22/13. The courtesy copy provided to Judge Lee is totally noncompliant with Local Rule 5.2. The Motion has 11 exhibits but there are no protruding tabs as required by Local Rule 5.2(d). Even more significant is the fact that the submission, which in total consists of 130 pages, was submitted unbound in any way, with all the pages simply loosely put in an envelope. The plaintiff is instructed to immediately deliver to chambers a bound courtesy copy of the motion with protruding tabs and that in all other aspects complies fully with Local Rule 5.2. The parties should be aware that if they cannot agree on dates for depositions, the court will set those dates. The parties are further reminded that: discovery, like all matters of procedure, has ultimate and necessary boundaries. Hickman v. Taylor, 329 U.S. 495, 507 (1947). The discovery rules are not an excursion ticket to an unlimited, never-ending exploration of every conceivable matter that captures an attorney's interest. Parties are entitled to a reasonable opportunity to investigate the facts-and no more. Vakharia v. Swedish Covenant Hosp., 1994 WL 75055 at *2 (N.D.Ill.1994)(Moran,J.). See Robinson v. Stanley, 2010 WL 1005736, 5 (N.D.Ill.,2010). The parties are further reminded that boilerplate objections do not count and will result in a waiver. United Auto. Ins. v. Veluchamy, 2010 WL 749980, 5 (N.D.Ill. 2010)(collecting cases). Finally, while the concept of relevancy under Rule 26 is broad, it is not limitless and that the Supreme Court has cautioned judges that the requirement of Rule 26(b)(1) that the materials sought in discovery be relevant should be firmly applied. Herbert v. Lando, 441 U.S. 153 (1979). Failure to exercise that control results in enormous costs to the litigants and to the due administration of justice. Cf. Bell Atlantic Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544 (2007); Frank Easterbrook, Discovery as Abuse, 69 B.U.L.Rev. 635 (1989). None of this should be taken as an indication of the court's view of the merits of the motion Judge Lee has sent here. Mailed notice (ma,)

August 15, 2012 Opinion or Order Filing 67 MINUTE entry before Honorable Jeffrey Cole: A settlement conference is scheduled for 8/15/2012. On Aug 13, 2012, plaintiff lawyer wrote a letter with 3 untabbed exhibits [in violation of our Local Rule 5.2(d)] seeking to cancel the settlement conference because, in his view, the defendants actions "reflect they have no intention of engaging in meaningful settlement discussions" that motion is denied. The order setting the conference [#61] could not be clearer. It requires a "written motion" in the event any party seeks to cancel the conference or vary any of the procedures in my standing order for settlement conferences. Perhaps the conference will be unsuccessful, many are. But it is worth the effort to proceed. Mailed notice (jms, )

July 2, 2012 Opinion or Order Filing 61 MINUTE entry before Honorable Jeffrey Cole:Magistrate Judge Status hearing held. Settlement Conference set for 8/15/2012 at 01:30 PM. All parties are directed to refer to and must review my "Instructions and Procedures for Settlement Conferences," available at "www.ilnd.uscourts.gov" and to comply with its directives before appearing at the settlement conference. Parties with FULL AUTHORITY to settle must be personally present at the conference. A member of either parties in-house legal department shall not qualify as a person with full authority. Participation by telephone will not be permitted as explained in my Instructions and Procedures for Settlement Conferences. Failure to comply with this requirement may result in a substantial monetary sanction and may necessitate the cancellation and resetting of the conference with the attendant additional costs associated with the rescheduled conference not only those of the non-compliant party, but also those incurred by the compliant party. As provided in the instructions, plaintiff's counsel shall deliver copies of the required settlement letters to chambers from both plaintiff and defendant by no later than (4) calendar days before the conference. All settlement documents must have protruding tabs separating exhibits or attachments, pursuant to Local Rule 5.2(e). Non-compliance with the 4-day Rule makes it difficult and often impossible for the conference to proceed effectively. Failure to comply with the 4-day Rule may necessitate cancellation of the conference. Parties cannot unilaterally agree to cancel a scheduled settlement conference. Permission not to proceed must be obtained from the court pursuant to written motion, and any party wishing to vary any of the procedures set forth in the standing order must make an appropriate request by written motion prior to the exchange of settlement letters described above. A settlement demand that is equal to what the plaintiff thinks is recoverable at trial is not a good faith settlement demand, and a defendants response must contain a counter offer, unless of course, the defendant does not intend to pay any amount, which is his/her right.Mailed notice (jms, )
