November 16, 2022 Filing 24 ATTORNEY Appearance for Defendant Kimberly M. Foxx by Silvia Mercado Masters (Masters, Silvia)
November 14, 2022 Filing 23 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Iain D. Johnston: The defendants' motion for an extension of time #22 is granted as modified: The defendants shall file an answer under Fed. R. Civ. P. 8 (not a motion to dismiss under Rule 12 or motion for summary judgment under Rule 56) by 12/13/2022. The deadline for the plaintiffs' position paper on Article III standing is sua sponte extended to 12/13/2022. (yxp, )
November 10, 2022 Filing 22 MOTION by Defendants Rick Amato, Robert Berlin, Kimberly M. Foxx, Kwame Raoul, Eric Rinehart for extension of time to file answer UNOPPOSED (Wenzloff, Aaron)
November 7, 2022 Filing 21 ATTORNEY Appearance for Defendant Eric Rinehart by Aaron Paul Wenzloff (Wenzloff, Aaron)
November 4, 2022 Filing 20 MINUTE entry before the Honorable Iain D. Johnston: The motions by defendants Rinehart #15 and Foxx #19 seeking extensions of time to answer are granted. All answers are now due 11/29/2022. The Court issues a rule to show cause to the plaintiffs to identify the basis upon which they allege standing under Article III. Federal courts are courts of limited jurisdiction, and a district court has a continuing obligation to ensure that it has jurisdiction over the cases before it. See Hertz Corp. v. Friend, 559 U.S. 77, 94 (2010) ("Courts have an independent obligation to determine whether subject-matter jurisdiction exists, even when no party challenges it."). To fall within the jurisdiction of a federal court, a plaintiff must have Article III standing to bring the action in the first instance. The traditional test for determining whether a plaintiff has standing presents three elements: (1) the plaintiff has suffered an injury in fact, (2) the injury is fairly traceable to the defendant's conduct, and (3) the relief sought will redress the injury complained of. FEC v. Ted Cruz for Senate, 142 S. Ct. 1638, 1646 (2022). The party invoking the federal court's jurisdiction bears the burden of establishing the plaintiff's standing to sue. Pierre v. Midland Credit Mgmt., 29 F.4th 934, 939 (7th Cir. 2022). The plaintiff's written response to the rule to show cause is also due 11/29/2022. (yxp, )
