| 2020-03-16 | 8 | ORDER Amended General Order 20-0012 IN RE: CORONAVIRUS COVID-19 PUBLIC EMERGENCY Signed by the Chief Judge Rebecca R. Pallmeyer on March 16, 2020.

| 2020-03-18 | 9 | ORDER In light of the public health situation, the Court encourages all parties and their counsel to take precautions, be reasonable, and use common sense in pending cases. In General Order No. 20-0012 dated March 16, 2020 (and amended on March 17), the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois extended all deadlines in civil cases by three weeks. Parties should assume that this Court will accommodate reasonable requests for extensions in the coming weeks, and counsel should show flexibility and accommodate each other too. This Court will grant a six-week extension of fact discovery if requested (and there is no need for an immediate request). Parties should not take depositions before April 17 unless (1) they take place telephonically; and (2) all parties and the witness(es) consent. Even a telephonic deposition often requires an in-person meeting to prepare the witness, so telephonic depositions can go forward only if everyone agrees. If any party or witness wants a deposition to take place in person, the deposition will take place after April 17. Needless to say, that date may change as the public health situation continues to evolve. Parties should continue to make progress in their cases when possible, but in a manner that is consistent with public health and safety. In the meantime, continue to work together cooperatively in the best traditions of our shared profession. The Court thanks all parties and their counsel for their patience and understanding during this difficult time.Signed by the Honorable Steven C. Seeger on 3/18/2020: Mailed notice.

| 2020-04-28 | 12 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: Plaintiff's application to proceed in forma pauperis (Dckt. No. 4 ) is hereby denied. Plaintiff's application reveals that he is employed and earns approximately $2,000 per month. He also has received a pension in the last 12 months totaling $36,000. He also owns a home with more than $100,000 in equity. Plaintiff has more than enough resources to pay this Court's filing fee. Also, Plaintiff did not answer a few of the questions on the Court's form. Plaintiff shall pay the filing fee by May 15, 2020 or this case will be dismissed. Mailed notice.

| 2020-05-18 | 13 | MOTION by Plaintiff Jose Antonio Cossio, Jr to amend/correct order on motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis,,, text entry,, 12 NO HEARING REQUESTED (Cossio, Jose) (Entered: 05/18/2020) |
| 2020-05-18 | 14 | NO HEARING NOTICE of Motion by Jose Antonio Cossio, Jr for presentment of motion to amend/correct 13 before Honorable Steven C. Seeger on 5/21/2020 at 09:00 AM. (Cossio, Jose) (Entered: 05/18/2020) |
| 2020-05-19 | 15 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: Plaintiff's motion for reconsideration (Dckt. No. 13 ) is hereby denied. The motion discussed Plaintiff's current job situation, but it does not change the fact that he had enough resources to pay the filing fee when he filed this case in February, weeks before the local coronavirus outbreak. The Court does amend its April 28, 2020 minute order (Dckt. No. 12 ) in one respect. It appears that Plaintiff has $50,000 in equity, not $100,000 in equity, in his home. But the upshot is the same: he has enough resources to pay the fee. This Court previously ordered Plaintiff to pay the filing fee by May 15. This Court sua sponte gives one final extension. Plaintiff must pay the filing fee by May 29 (10 days from now), or this Court will dismiss this case. Mailed notice. (jjr, ) (Entered: 05/19/2020) |
| 2020-05-26 | 16 | ORDER ORDER Fourth Amended General Order 20-0012 IN RE: CORONAVIRUS COVID-19 PUBLIC EMERGENCY Signed by the Chief Judge Rebecca R. Pallmeyer on May 26, 2020. This Order does not extend or modify any deadlines set in civil cases. For non-emergency motions, no motion may be noticed for presentment on a date earlier than July 15, 2020. See attached Order. Signed by the Honorable Rebecca R. Pallmeyer on 5/26/2020: Mailed notice. (docket10, ) (Entered: 05/26/2020) |
| 2020-06-01 | 17 | MINUTE entry before the Honorable Steven C. Seeger: On April 28, 2020, this Court entered an order denying plaintiff's application to proceed in forma pauperis (Dckt. No. 12 ). This Court set a deadline of May 15, 2020 to pay the filing fee. Id. Later, this Court sua sponte gave plaintiff a two-week extension, and set a new deadline of May 29, 2020. (Dckt. No. 15 ) This Court forewarned that it would dismiss the case if plaintiff failed to pay the filing fee. Plaintiff has not paid the fee, so this case is closed. Civil case terminated. Mailed notice.
