| 2023-01-27 | 17 | MOTION for Hearing -Status Conference by CHAM BANK S.A.. (Attachments: # 1 Text of Proposed Order Granting Status Conference)(Baloul, Gassan) (Entered: 01/27/2023) |
| 2023-01-29 | | MINUTE ORDER: The Court is in receipt of Plaintiff's 17 Motion for a Status Conference. Plaintiff evidently intends to request, during a status conference, that the Court (1) set a schedule for Defendant to complete its FOIA productions and (2) permit Plaintiff to move to amend its complaint to add claims beyond FOIA, currently the sole basis of its operative complaint. Because a status conference is unnecessary for Plaintiff to move for such relief, Plaintiff's 17 Motion for a Status Conference is DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE . Briefly, the Court notes that, consistent with longstanding appellate precedent, the Court does not generally order more expeditious productions in FOIA cases. See Open Am. v. Watergate Special Prosecution Force , 547 F.2d 605, 615-16 (D.C. Cir. 1976) (precluding injunctive relief expediting a FOIA request in the absence of "exceptional circumstances"); In re Barr Labs., Inc. , 930 F.2d 72, 75 (D.C. Cir. 1991) (more generally precluding "a judicial order putting [a plaintiff] at the head of [a] queue [only to] move[] all others back one space and produce[] no net gain").
