| 2021-08-05 | | MINUTE ORDER. On August 3, 2021, the plaintiff filed a 38 Status Report, representing that the Department of Commerce had voluntarily released the Uranium Report and had located the DOD Response Letter, and that these developments "may resolve the parties dispute over search adequacy." See Status Report at 1-3, Dkt. 38. The plaintiff further indicated that, if necessary, it "reserves the right to challenge" any withholdings Commerce makes from the DOD Response Letter, id. at 3, and requested the opportunity to file new briefing on these "factual developments; new and potentially relevant legal authorities; arguments for whether this case is moot; and, if relevant, Commerce's grounds for redacting information from the DOD letter," id. at 4. In light of these statements, it appears that the nature of the parties' FOIA dispute has meaningfully changed since Commerce filed its motion for summary judgment and the plaintiff filed its cross-motion. Accordingly, the Court DENIES WITHOUT PREJUDICE the defendant's 17 Motion for Summary Judgment. It further DENIES WITHOUT PREJUDCE the plaintiffs 18 Cross-Motion for Summary Judgment. It is ORDERED that the parties shall file another joint status report on or before August 26, 2021 that provides an update on the status of production and that proposes a schedule for further proceedings in this case.

Upon consideration of the parties' 42 Joint Status Report, it is ORDERED that the following schedule will govern further proceedings: the plaintiff shall file a motion for summary judgment on or before November 19, 2021; the defendant shall file an opposition to the motion for summary judgment and a cross-motion for summary judgment on or before January 18, 2022; the plaintiff shall file a reply brief in support and an opposition to the cross-motion on or before February 17, 2022; and the defendant shall file a reply brief in support of its cross-motion on or before March 21, 2022. The Court further notes that the motion for summary judgment and opposition must comply with LCvR 7(h), which requires that each party submitting a motion for summary judgment attach a statement of material facts for which that party contends there is no genuine dispute, with numbered paragraphs and specific citations to those portions of the record upon which the party relies in fashioning the statement. The party opposing the motion must include a statement that enumerates all material facts that the party contends are genuinely disputed. The opposing party's statement must (1) restate the movant's statement of undisputed material fact in numbered paragraphs, and (2) immediately following each numbered paragraph state the opponent's response to the stated fact.

| 2022-02-02 | | MINUTE ORDER. Before the Court is the defendant's 46 Motion for Extension of Time. As set forth in the plaintiff's 47 Opposition, the Court has granted the defendant multiple extensions in this case. Pl.'s Opp'n at 1. And in its January 17 order granting the defendant's latest extension, the Court explicitly stated that "the Court will not grant any further extensions." Nonetheless, the defendant failed to file its brief in a timely fashion and instead, just before midnight on the day its brief was due, filed yet another motion for an extension. The Court appreciates that counsel has a heavy case load, but that does not excuse his failure to comply with the court's deadlines in this and other cases. Because the Court believes that counsel is operating in good faith, it will decline the plaintiff's invitation to prepare a formal motion for an order to show cause and to impose sanctions on Defendant. It also will not treat the plaintiff's factual allegations as conceded. But the Court will order the defendant to file any opposition to the plaintiff's motion for summary judgment today, February 2, 2022, or be prepared to respond to an order to show cause as to why the defendant should not be held in contempt for failing to follow court orders. So Ordered by Judge Dabney L. Friedrich on February 2, 2022. (lcdlf2) (Entered: 02/02/2022) |
