Aug 22, 2023MOTION by Defendant LinkedIn Corporation for extension of time Unopposed Motion for Extension of Time to Answer or Respond to Complaint (Horton, Benjamin) (Entered: 08/22/2023)PACER Document
Aug 25, 2023MINUTE entry before the Honorable Edmond E. Chang: Although the unopposed extension motion (the third one) to respond to the complaint 18 is granted to 09/20/2023, there unfortunately will be no more extensions. In reality, the unspecific reference to a "third party" who needs more time, R. 18 at 2-3, is insufficient to justify the current extension, but the Court will grant it anyway to give one final chance at pre-response resolution. If the actual, detailed grounds for extension would have warranted under-seal treatment, then the parties could have filed a motion for appropriate relief. In any event, the motion is granted. The tracking status hearing of 09/15/2023 is reset to 10/06/2023 at 8:30 a.m., but to track the case only (no appearance is required, the case will not be called). Instead, the parties shall file the joint initial status report by 09/27/2023. Emailed notice (mw, ) (Entered: 08/25/2023)PACER Document

Instead, the Court will set the case schedule after reviewing the written status report.

Plaintiff must still file the report even if Defendant has not responded to requests to craft a joint report. Also, counsel (or the parties, if proceeding pro se) must carefully review Judge Chang's Case Management Procedures, available online at ilnd.uscourts.gov (navigate to Judges / District Judges / Judge Edmond E. Chang). Because the Procedures are occasionally revised, counsel (or the party, if proceeding pro se) must read them anew even if the counsel or the party has appeared before Judge Chang in other cases.
