December 18, 2020 Filing 10 RESPONSE by Defendants Dick's Sporting Goods, Inc., Michelle Jurczak to motion to remand #6 (Attachments: #1 Exhibit, #2 Exhibit, #3 Exhibit, #4 Exhibit, #5 Exhibit)(Berger, Adam)
December 18, 2020 Filing 9 NOTICE by Michelle Jurczak (Attachments: #1 Notice of Filing)(Berger, Adam)
December 18, 2020 Filing 8 ATTORNEY Appearance for Defendant Michelle Jurczak by Adam M. Berger (Berger, Adam)
December 11, 2020 Filing 7 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: The Court reviewed the motion to remand (Dckt. No. #6 ). The removal statute provides that "[w]hen a civil action is removed under section 1441(a), all defendants who have been properly joined and served must join in or consent to the removal of the action." See 28 U.S.C. 1446(b)(2)(A). Defendant Dick's Sporting Goods was served with process on October 26, 2020 (Dckt. No. #6 -2), and Defendant Jurczak was served with process on October 23, 2020 (Dckt. No. #6 -3]. Removal took place on November 20, 2020, after both defendants were served, so removal was proper only if both defendants consented. But only one of the two defendants filed the notice of removal. The first paragraph states that it was filed by "Defendant, "DICK'S SPORTING GOODS." (Dckt. No. #1 ) The last paragraph provides that "Defendant, "DICK'S SPORTING GOODS gives notice" of removal. Only one defendant appears on the signature block, too. Dick's Sporting Goods did not attach a consent to removal signed by Defendant Jurczak. On its face, the notice of removal gives no indication that "all defendants" consented to removal. By December 18, 2020, Defendants shall show cause why this case should not be remanded. Mailed notice. (jjr, )
December 9, 2020 Filing 6 MOTION by Plaintiff Laura Majewski to remand (Attachments: #1 Exhibit A, #2 Exhibit B, #3 Exhibit C)(Roche, James)
December 9, 2020 Filing 5 Appearance by Laura Majewski (Roche, James)
November 25, 2020 Filing 4 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: An initial status report is due by February 10, 2021. Counsel must read the Standing Order entitled "Initial Status Conferences and Joint Initial Status Reports" on the Court's website. The parties must confer as required by Rule 26(f) about the nature, scope, and duration of discovery. The parties must submit two documents to the Court. First, the parties must file the Joint Initial Status Report under Rule 26(f) on the docket. A Word version of the Joint Initial Status Report is available on the Court's website. All parties must participate in the preparation and filing of the Joint Initial Status Report. The Court requires a joint report, so a filing by one side or the other is not sufficient. Second, the parties must email a Word version of a proposed Scheduling Order under Rule 16(b) to the Court's proposed order inbox. Lead counsel for the parties must participate in filing the initial status report. Plaintiff must serve this Order on all other parties. If the defendant has not been served with process, plaintiff's counsel must contact the Courtroom Deputy at jessica_j_ramos@ilnd.uscourts.gov to reschedule the initial status report deadline. Plaintiff should not file the Joint Initial Status Report before the defendant(s) has been served with process. The parties must discuss settlement in good faith and make a serious attempt to resolve this case amicably. All counsel of record must read and comply with this Court's Standing Orders on its webpage. Please pay special attention to the Standing Orders about Depositions and Discovery. Mailed notice.
