April 20, 2022 Filing 9 MOTION by Attorney Michael S. Vojta to withdraw as attorney for Pipe Fitters' Local 597 Welfare and Retirement Fund. No party information provided (Vojta, Michael)
April 6, 2022 Filing 8 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: Defendant Welfare Fund's motion for extension of time to respond to the complaint (Dckt. No. #7 ) is hereby granted. The response is currently due on April 5, and Defendant seeks an extension until April 29. That request is reasonable, and this Court considers such requests to be routine. So routine, in fact, that the Court was surprised to see that the motion was opposed. Absent a compelling reason, opposing a routine request for an extension of time isn't the best way to start the case. Mailed notice. (jjr, )

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.

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.
