| 2022-09-01 | 23 | RESPONSE re 22 Amended MOTION to Strike 20 MOTION for Leave to File Response in Opposition to Supplemental Memorandum filed by JANET L. YELLEN. (Silverman, Bradley) (Entered: 09/01/2022) |
| 2022-09-02 | | MINUTE ORDER. Plaintiff filed a 19 "supplemental memorandum" in support of his 15 motion for a preliminary injunction, and the Court established a schedule for the filing of any response. After re-reading the Order, the Court can understand defendant's confusion, but defendant actually had it right the first time: the Court intended the due date to be mandatory, not the filing. But now defendant has filed a 20 motion for leave to file a late response, and that motion, which does not extend the briefing schedule or delay the resolution of the underlying issues unreasonably, will be granted in the Court's discretion. Plaintiff's 22 motion to strike the motion for leave to file is entirely inappropriate and will be denied; the proper response to a motion one opposes is to oppose it, not to move to strike it, and the Court imagines that there may come a time when the plaintiff needs a few extra days and would expect consideration from opposing counsel in that situation. The Clerk of Court is directed to file the [20-1] response to the supplemental memorandum. SO ORDERED. Signed by Judge Amy Berman Jackson on 09/02/2022. (lcabj2) (Entered: 09/02/2022) |

| 2022-09-08 | | MINUTE ORDER. In light of the 26 joint status report, the parties must file another status report by October 31, 2022. In the meantime, in order to address the slow pace of production to date, Main Treasury must produce records on September 15, 2022 and every 30 days on a rolling basis thereafter, beginning with the production of, at least, the approximately 45 records it has already reviewed and determined it would produce. FinCEN and OIG must accelerate their review of the responsive records they have identified and produce responsive material that is not subject to withholdings on a rolling basis every 30 days as well, beginning on September 30, 2022.

| 2022-09-20 | 27 | ORDER denying the 15 Motion for a Preliminary Injunction.
