Filing 21
MINUTE entry before the Honorable Joan B. Gottschall: Defendants have filed a motion #20 to delay entry of a scheduling order because, they argue, their forthcoming motion to dismiss will raise jurisdictional issues that must be resolved before discovery commences. In accordance with its ordinary practice, the court cannot rule on whether delaying entry of a scheduling order is appropriate without seeing the jurisdictional arguments defendants raise and without hearing from plaintiff after he has had a chance to review defendants' jurisdictional arguments. The motion to delay entry of a scheduling order is therefore premature and is entered and continued until defendants file their anticipated motion to dismiss on December 20, 2022. At that point, plaintiff will have one week to respond to the motion to delay the entry of a scheduling order, and the government will have one week to reply. The court sua sponte extends the time for filing the case management plan to and including one week from the court's ruling on defendants' motion to delay entry of a scheduling order.

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Joan B. Gottschall: On December 14, 2022, plaintiff sent an email message to the court, with a copy to defense counsel, requesting that a hearing be set in this case. This court's procedures, available from Judge Gottschall's page on the court's official website, require a request for a hearing to be filed on the docket: "Any party may request a hearing, preferably by teleconference, by filing a written request and explaining why a hearing is necessary." For this reason and because plaintiff's request is in substance a written motion on a substantive matter, the court directed the clerk to docket plaintiff's email message dated December 14, 2022. Plaintiff has requested that the court set a hearing presumably to order the government to meet and confer with him regarding a discovery plan, presently due on December 27, 2022. The government's time to answer or otherwise plead has not yet expired. Its response date is December 20, 2022. The government has represented that on that date, it plans to move to dismiss; it has also represented that its motion may challenge this court's jurisdiction. Until the court has seen the motion to dismiss, it is not in a position to force the parties to do anything, since frequently, jurisdictional motions must be decided before the case can move forward. Accordingly, no such hearing will be scheduled until the court has reviewed the government's motion.Mailed notice (mjc, )

Filing 6
ORDER: An initial status report and, if appropriate, case management plan is due on or before January 25, 2023. In conformity with General Order 21-0027 and due to the need for social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic, this court is ordering written status reports instead of routine oral status hearings. This includes initial status hearings and scheduling conferences under Fed. R. Civ. P. 16(b). See Judge Gottschall's website for the procedure for requesting a hearing and for requirements for status reports and discovery plans during the COVID-19 pandemic. No Rule 26(f) discovery plan should be submitted until all defendants have been served. If all defendants have not been served by the deadline for filing an initial status report, the report should so state and propose a deadline for filing a discovery plan. The parties are directed to discuss settlement and whether they consent to proceed before the Magistrate Judge. They are further directed to meet and confer regarding a proposed discovery plan. See Judge Gottschall's civil case management packet regarding pretrial case management procedures at: http://www.ilnd.uscourts.gov. Signed by the Honorable Joan B. Gottschall on 10/25/2022.
