Filing 36 ORDER STAYING CASE: ( #22 Motion for Injunction filed by Terry Conner, Joseph Dodson, Barbara Bachman, Michael Schiesl terminated.) In sum, the Court finds that the defendants have already been enjoined from enforcing Executive Order 14042 and its implementing provisions, including the vaccination-status disclosure mandate the plaintiffs seek to enjoin in this case. See Georgia, 2021 WL 5779939 at *12. Because it is currently unclear whether the plaintiffs can demonstrate that they face an injury traceable to the defendants, they may lack standing to challenge the Executive Order. But because the plaintiffs may have standing if the defendants are later permitted to enforce the EO, the Court stays this case pending further court action by the (1) Southern District of Georgia, (2) United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit, or (3) Supreme Court of the United States that reinstates EO 14042 along with its implementing Task Force Guidance, OMB Determination, and FAR Deviation Clause. (Ordered by Judge James Wesley Hendrix on 12/28/2021) (dsr) |
Filing 35 ORDER granting #31 Motion for Leave to Exceed Page Limit. The plaintiffs reply brief (Dkt. No. 33) and appendix in support (Dkt. No. 34) are deemed timely filed and in compliance with Local Civil Rule 7.2(c). (Ordered by Judge James Wesley Hendrix on 12/27/2021) (dsr) |

Jackson, Jeffrey A. Koses, Office of Management and Budget, Safer Federal Workforce Task Force, John M Tenaglia, United States Office of Personnel Management, Shalanda Young, Jeffrey Zients (Attachments: #1 Exhibit(s) A: OMB Guidance) (Wynosky, Kevin) |
Filing 29 ORDER: Before the Court is the plaintiffs motion to enjoin Executive Order 14042. Dkt. No. #22 . While the plaintiffs acknowledge that the nationwide injunction enjoin[ed] the federal government from enforcement of EO 14042, they assert that the current nationwide injunction in effect does not enjoin the government from requiring that covered federal contractors compel employees to disclose their vaccination status. Dkt. No. #23 at 5, 13. For avoidance of doubt regarding the nationwide injunctions scope and the defendants compliance with it, the Court orders the defendants to file a notice with the Court that details the items listed herein on page 3, by December 23, 2021 at 5:00 PM CDT. (Ordered by Judge James Wesley Hendrix on 12/22/2021) (pnp) |

(Bustos, Fernando) |
Filing 25 ORDER re: #22 ...First MOTION for Injunction Expedited Briefing Schedule and Restraining Order. Plaintiffs seek an expedited briefing schedule, a temporary restraining order, and a preliminary injunction before January 4, 2022. To provide the requisite notice and enable the Court to adequately consider any argument the defendants have before this date, the plaintiffs are ordered to provide to the Acting United States Attorney for the Northern District of Texas, Chad Meacham, and the Chief of the Civil Division for the Northern District of Texas, Scott Hogan the documents as set out in this order. Thus, should the defendants wish to contest the plaintiffs motion for a temporary restraining order and a preliminary injunction, they must submit a response brief no later than December 21, 2021. Plaintiffs may file a reply brief to any response no later than December 23, 2021. The Court will set a hearing date and resolve the motion after briefing is ripe.
