order Order on Motion to Adjourn Conference Wed 05/24 3:13 PM
ORDER granting in part10 Motion to Adjourn. This Court does not require an answer to hold the Initial Status Conference since the answer rarely gives any useful information. Rather, this Court's requirement that the parties confer and submit a joint letter setting forth in detail their claims and defenses in this case will give a lot more information and thus create a lot more opportunity for discussion and planning than would an answer. Therefore, the Initial Status Conference is adjourned to 6/16/2017 at 10:30 am in Courtroom 8D South . By that time, defendant will have had six weeks to prepare for this Conference and the Court expects it to be fully prepared. Ordered by Judge Brian M. Cogan on 5/24/2017. (Weisberg, Peggy)

order Order on Motion for Extension of Time to File Fri 05/12 8:24 PM
ORDER denying8 Motion for 30-day Extension of Time to Answer or Move. Having reviewed defendant's letter motion, the Court does not believe that 30 days will be sufficient for defendant to conduct the tasks outlined. Defendant is therefore granted until 7/14/17 to answer or move. However, the Initial Status Conference on 6/2/17 is going forward as no one has requested an adjournment, and the Court assumes that the parties will fully comply with the requirements for that conference that have been previously posted, and will be fully prepared to discuss their positions in this case. Plaintiff's counsel is advised that the failure to extend professional courtesies can be a double-edged sword, and the time may come in this case when plaintiff's counsel wants an extension. Ordered by Judge Brian M. Cogan on 5/12/2017. (Cogan, Brian)
