Filing 28
MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: The agreed motion #27 to set briefing schedule is granted, although the Court modifies the briefing format: rather than four separate defense briefs presenting overlapping arguments, and then four separate response briefs, plus four replies, the Defendants shall coordinate their briefing as follows. The Defendants shall file one combined brief in support of the motion to dismiss, presenting common arguments together and, to the extent necessary (it will be), individualized subsections within the one brief. The Plaintiff shall file one response brief addressing all the arguments. The Defendants shall file one combined reply brief. It is true that there are claims that will be targeted only by one or a subset of Defendants (because not all Defendants are named in all counts) and there also are claims that will certainly require individualized subsections to respond to individualized allegations. On balance, however, it is better to remove the redundancies than it is to receive 12 briefs. For now, the Court adopts the proposed briefing schedule, but given the change in format, the parties may confer and file an extension motion (and also include a request for extra pages). For now, the Defendants will file the combined brief by 05/05/2021. The Plaintiff shall respond by 06/21/2021. The Defendants will file the combined reply by 07/13/2021. The briefing schedule obviates the need for an initial joint status report, but if any party wishes to ask for more information on the issue flagged in R. 6, then the request for information is due by the prior status-report deadline of 04/15/2021. The tracking status hearing of 04/23/2021 is reset to 05/14/2021 at 8:30 a.m., but to track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called). On a separate matter, the counsel for Defendant Bonnevier shall file formal attorney appearances on the docket (with pro hac vice applications if needed). Lastly, the Court does strongly encourage the parties to engage in early settlement negotiations before launching into the briefing schedule. The risk, delay, and expense of litigation are all magnified in a case of this kind. And the magistrate judge assigned to the case is an expert at bringing parties together at all stages of a case. Having said that, the Court leaves it up to the parties to decide whether they want an early settlement referral. Emailed notice (mw, )

Filing 12
MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: On review of the status report, R. 11, the waivers of service for Defendants Northwestern and Bonneview have been returned (setting the answer deadline for around early 04/2021). Given the waivers and the pendency of either waivers or formal service on the other Defendants, the tracking status hearing of 03/05/2021 is reset to 04/23/2021 at 8:30 a.m., but to track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called). Instead, the Plaintiff and the then-served Defendants shall file a joint initial status report by 04/15/2021. For clarity of the docket, the Plaintiff should file the returns of waivers or proofs of service within a reasonable time after receiving them. The Court strongly encourages the other Defendants to waive service, thus avoiding the expenses of service under Civil Rule 4(d)(2) (the Plaintiff may communicate this order to the other Defendants if there is a reliable means of contact with them). Mailed notice (cn).

Filing 6
MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: Judge Chang notifies the parties that he teaches a civil rights litigation class at Northwestern University School of Law, approximately once per year. Although adjunct teaching does not typically require recusal, In re Complaint, 816 F.3d 1266, 1267-68 (9th Cir. 2016), if the parties would like additional information on whether this poses a conflict of interest, then the Court invites inquiries. The requests for information may be included in the joint initial status report. Emailed notice (mw, )

Filing 5
MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: Initial tracking status hearing set for 03/05/2021 at 8:30 a.m. to track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called). Instead, the Court will set the case schedule after reviewing the written status report. The parties must file a joint initial status report with the content described in the attached status report requirements by 02/25/2021. Plaintiff must still file the report even if Defendants has not responded to requests to craft a joint report. If not all Defendants have been served, then Plaintiff must complete the part of the report on the progress of service. Also, counsel (or the parties, if proceeding pro se) must carefully review Judge Chang's Case Management Procedures, available online at ilnd.uscourts.gov (navigate to Judges / District Judges / Judge Edmond E. Chang). Because the Procedures are occasionally revised, counsel (or the party, if proceeding pro se) must read them anew even if the counsel or the party has appeared before Judge Chang in other cases.
