| 2024-05-22 | | MINUTE ORDER. Plaintiffs filed this Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) action on April 4, 2024. Dkt 1 . Defendant filed its Answer on May 22, 2024. Dkt. 10 . Cases filed under FOIA are exempt from the requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(f) and Local Civil Rule 16.3. See LCvR 16.3(b)(10). Accordingly, the Court hereby ORDERS the parties to meet and confer and file a joint status report on or before June 5, 2024. The joint status report should address, among other things, (1) the status of Plaintiffs' FOIA requests; (2) the anticipated number of documents responsive to Plaintiffs' FOIA requests; (3) the anticipated date(s) for release of those documents; and (4) whether a motion for a stay under Open America v. Watergate Special Prosecution Force , 547 F.2d 605 (D.C. Cir. 1976), is likely. As set forth in Section 5(d) of the Court's Standing Order, if the parties agree on a proposed schedule for submitting a further joint status report, they should assume that the Court approves the proposed date unless the Court enters an order to the contrary. Counsel shall not contact Chambers directly concerning scheduling or other matters, as Chambers personnel will not handle questions relating to the status or scheduling of pending matters, except in case of an emergency. In an emergency, Chambers can be reached at (202) 354-3350. Signed by Judge Ana C. Reyes on 5/22/2024. (lcar3) (Entered: 05/22/2024) |

| 2024-06-05 | 11 | Joint STATUS REPORT by UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES. (Dreier, Douglas) (Entered: 06/05/2024) |
| 2024-06-11 | | MINUTE ORDER. The Court has reviewed the parties' 11 Joint Status Report. The Court expects parties to resolve the types of disputes aired in the Report through good faith negotiation. For example, the Court has never before encountered a dispute over the frequency of joint status reports that required intervention by an Article III jurist. Nor does the Court see why the parties cannot compromise on a production schedule of between 500 and 1,000 pages per month. The Court therefore ORDERS the parties to meet and confer and submit, on or before June 21, 2024, a further joint status report setting forth the parties' plan for records production and future joint status reports. If the parties are unable to resolve their disputes and require judicial intervention and the Court determines that either side acted unreasonably or in bad faith, it will enter a show-cause order on sanctions.
