| 2022-10-12 | | MINUTE ORDER denying, without prejudice, 40 Plaintiff's partial motion for summary judgment and granting 42 motion for order denying without prejudice Plaintiff's motion for partial summary judgment. District Courts have broad discretion in deciding how best to manage their dockets. Jackson v. Finnegan, Henderson, Farabow, Garrett & Dunner, 101 F.3d 145, 151 (D.C. Cir. 1996). Plaintiff's motion is premature. Defendant completed production of certain documents in January 2022, and continues to process potentially responsive, non-exempt records. See, e.g., Joint Status Report, ECF No. 39. The Court's general practice in FOIA cases is to establish a briefing schedule on motion(s) for summary judgment once production is complete, absent extenuating circumstances. At this juncture in this case, the Court sees no reason to depart from that practice. Plaintiff's counsel is reminded of the obligation to comply with 4 Standing Order Governing Civil Cases before the Court as well as the Local Civil Rules of this Court. Signed by Judge Emmet G. Sullivan on 10/12/2022. (lcegs1) (Entered: 10/12/2022) |
