November 10, 2021 Filing 8 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: The Plaintiff did not respond to the motion #4 to dismiss or to transfer. As noted in R. 7, the case is not properly venued here, but instead is venued in the Central District of Illinois. The motion #4 to transfer is granted under 28 U.S.C. 1406(a). The Clerk shall forthwith transfer this case to the Central District of Illinois, Urbana Division. The tracking status hearing of 11/12/2021 is vacated. Emailed notice (mw, )
October 22, 2021 Filing 7 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: On the Defendants' motion to dismiss or (alternatively) to transfer to CDIL, R. 4, the Plaintiff shall respond by 11/01/2021. The defense may reply by 11/08/2021. On initial review of the complaint, it does seem that the Plaintiff mistakenly believed that Kankakee County is in the Northern District of Illinois. Compl., para. 8. It is in fact in the Central District of Illinois. 28 U.S.C. 93(b). Transfer appears to be appropriate. Separately, because the dismissal motion would have to be briefed anyway, the Plaintiff's response is due by 11/19/2021. The defense reply is due by 12/10/2021. The tracking status hearing of 11/19/2021 is accelerated to 11/12/2021 at 8:30 a.m., but to track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called). Emailed notice (mw, )

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 11/10/2021. Plaintiff must still file the report even if Defendants have 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. Emailed notice (Attachments: #1 Status Report Requirements) (mw, )
