1 - Scheduling
SCHEDULING ORDER - The Court GRANTS the case schedule outlined in the parties' Revised Rule 26(f) Report (ECF 23 ) as follows: (1) Amend pleadings, join parties, claims, or remedies not later than October 23, 2026; (2) Confer as to ADR not later than October 23, 2026; (3) Discovery is to be completed not later than November 23, 2026; (4) Complete ADR not later than November 23, 2026; (5) A joint ADR report is due not later than December 7, 2026; (6) Plaintiff's dispositive motion is due not later than January 25, 2027; (7) Defendants' responses and cross-motions are due not later than February 24, 2027; (8) Plaintiff's responses are due by March 10, 2027; and (9) Defendants' optional replies are due not later than March 24, 2027.
ORDER - No party may file a discovery motion without prior leave of Court. If a discovery dispute remains after the parties have conferred thoroughly and in good faith, any party may send an email to the Courtroom Deputy with a brief description of the discovery dispute (without attaching exhibits) and each party's respective position. After the Court has reviewed the email, the Courtroom Deputy will contact the parties to schedule a telephone conference, if necessary.
Additionally, any party wishing to file a motion for summary judgment must first file a motion for leave, not exceeding five pages, that briefly describes the basis of each ground raised in the motion and how the motion meets the standards for summary judgment. In other words, noting how the motion is based on issues of law or undisputed material facts, viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the nonmoving party. Reciting disputed facts in the light most favorable to the moving party or ignoring material factual disputes does not support granting summary judgment. Motions for leave to file motions for summary judgment are due three weeks prior to the motion deadline, with responses due one week thereafter. These deadlines remain applicable to any subsequent extension of the dispositive motion of deadline.
Finally, if a party uses artificial intelligence to perform legal research or analysis for any document filed with the court, the party must independently verify the existence and accuracy of any cited cases. Ordered by Judge Michael H. Simon. (mja)
