2022-10-2514MOTION for Extension of Time to File Answer re 1 Complaint with proposed order by UNITED STATES CUSTOMS & BORDER PROTECTION. (Duffey, Thomas) (Entered: 10/25/2022)
2022-10-26MINUTE ORDER: Upon consideration of the Motion for Extension of Time to Answer or Otherwise Respond to the Complaint, Dkt. 14 , it is hereby ORDERED that the motion is GRANTED. It is further ORDERED that Defendant shall file its answer or otherwise respond to the complaint on or before November 28, 2022. Defendant is reminded, however, that, per the Standing Order, "[a]ny party that intends to seek an extension must make a meaningful effort to ascertain the opposing party's position with respect to the extension before filing a motion; an eleventh-hour telephone or email message left for opposing counsel, for example, will not typically satisfy the meet-and-confer requirement." Dkt. 3 at 6. Further, "[a]bsent extraordinary circumstances, contested motions for extension of time shall be filed at least three business days before the relevant deadline." Id. (emphasis added). Counsel's after-hours effort to consult with the opposing party the night before filing an extension motion is not sufficient and will not be tolerated in the future. Signed by Judge Randolph D. Moss on 10/26/2022. (lcrdm2) (Entered: 10/26/2022)

2024-01-1627RESPONSE re 25 Notice (Other) with proposed order filed by UNITED STATES CUSTOMS & BORDER PROTECTION. (Duffey, Thomas) (Entered: 01/16/2024)
2024-01-24MINUTE ORDER: On January 2, 2024, Plaintiff filed a Notice, Dkt. 25 , alerting the Court that on January 23, 2024, he planned to move for an order to compel discovery. That date has now passed, and Plaintiff has not filed such a motion. The Court observes that Plaintiff's decision not to do so appears eminently reasonable given that--as Defendant explained in its response, Dkt. 27--discovery is typically disfavored in FOIA cases, especially prior to the government's submission of affidavits or declarations during summary judgment proceedings. The Court finds it unnecessary to issue an order denying a non-existent motion, but the Court takes this opportunity to clarify that it still expects the parties to follow the schedule for summary judgment briefing set by the January 3, 2024, Minute Order.
