MINUTE entry before Honorable Michael T. Mason: Defendant has noticed before this Court its "Motion to Dismiss Chicago Import, Inc.'s Complaint for Failure to Comply with Multiple Court Orders, Serving a Fraudulent Affidavit, and Withholding Material Inventory Information" 219 . As defendant has previously been made aware 178 , given the scope of the referral in this matter 40 , defendants motion is not properly brought before this Court. Further, we note for the record that defendant's motion appears to be premature, since at the 8/14/12 status hearing, this Court gave Chicago Import an additional 14 days to obtain the current Yahoo account passwords through its own subpoena of Vikram Punjabi in Georgia [see 218]. Defendant is directed to notice its motion before the District Court according to that Court's Case Management Procedures, and to deliver a courtesy copy of its motion, including tabbed exhibits, to the District Court's Chambers. The 8/28/12 noticed motion hearing before this Court is stricken, however, the status hearing set for 8/28/12 at 9:00 am, and all other aspects of our 8/14/12 minute order, as amended, stand.

Counsel for the parties shall jointly contact Chambers by 3/29/11 by telephone (312-435-5610) to advise the Court's law clerk Courtney Beemer regarding whether all issues related to defendant's motion to compel have been completely resolved and whether that motion may be withdrawn.

MINUTE entry before Honorable Michael T. Mason: This Court has received courtesy copies of defendant's motions for rule to show cause against Ron Shoeneman 152 and Allan Schoeneman 154 . While defense counsel selected the District Judge in the CM/ECF system as the Judge before whom defendant noticed the motions [see docket text entries 153 & 155], it is clear from the notices of motion themselves [153 & 155] as well as the scope of the District Court's referral order 40 that the motions are properly pending before this Court. The hearing on defendants' motions is re-set to 3/15/11 at 9:00 am -- note the time change only. Allen Tish, who evidently is counsel for Ron Schoeneman and Allan Schoeneman [see 152, 154], is directed to appear in person at the 3/15/11 hearing. Defense counsel is directed to make all reasonable efforts to contact Mr. Tish and advise him of this Court's order. (rbf, ) (Entered: 03/08/2011)

MINUTE entry before Honorable Michael T. Mason: Status hearing held and continued to 2/8/11 at 9:00 am. The parties report on issues related to defendant's motion to compel 139 . By 2/1/11, plaintiff shall provide defendant with plaintiff's amended Rule 26(a)(1)(A)(iii) disclosures regarding all damages claimed by plaintiff, including the "computation of each category of damages" contemplated by that Rule. Producing documents purporting to support of a single lump sum of the damages alleged does not satisfy plaintiff's obligations under that Rule. See, e.g., Menotti v. Metropolitan Life Ins.Co., No. 08-2767, 2010 WL 375619 (N.D.Ill. Jan. 25, 2010); City & County of San Francisco v. Tutor-Saliba Corp., 218 F.R.D. 219 (N.D. Cal. 2003). Also by 2/1/11, plaintiff shall produce any additional documents in its possession, custody, or control that support its alleged damages. Further, by 2/1/11, plaintiff shall provide defendant with plaintiff's supplemental Rule 26(a)(1)(A)(i) disclosures that identify any individuals with potentially discoverable information who are no longer employed by plaintiff, as well as the last known address, telephone number, and any other contact information for those individuals in plaintiff's possession, custody, or control. Defendant's motion to compel 139 is entered and continued to 2/8/11 at 9:00 am. (rbf, ) (Entered: 01/25/2011)

MINUTE entry before Honorable Michael T. Mason: This Court has reviewed the parties' joint status report 141 . In their report, the parties state that plaintiff has agreed to produce certain information and documents (including electronically stored information) and conduct certain investigations sought by defendant in its motion to compel 139 , and that the issues raised in defendant's motion will be finally resolved once plaintiff completes, no later than 1/18/11, its investigations and production of the documents and information set forth in the status report. Status hearing set for 1/25/11 at 9:00 am. In the event defendant contends, after 1/18/11, that any issue related to its motion to compel remains outstanding, the parties shall meet and confer in person or by telephone no later than 1/24/11, and shall be prepared to report at the 1/25/11 status hearing their proposal for resolving those issues. The parties are advised that, given the 4/1/11 deadline for fact discovery, this Court will likely set a very short briefing schedule on defendant's motion to compel. Mailed notice.

MINUTE entry before Honorable Michael T. Mason: Status hearing held. Among other things, the parties report that fact discovery is proceeding, and that plaintiff's counsel needs to conduct further investigation regarding the flash drive issue previously discussed on the record. Additionally, defendant clarifies that its pending motion to compel 139 also seeks an ordering requiring plaintiff to provide amended Rule 26(a)(1)(A)(iii) disclosures regarding all damages claimed by plaintiff, including the "computation of each category of damages" contemplated by that Rule. The parties are directed to again meet and confer in person or by telephone under Local Rule 37.2 regarding defendant's motion. By 3:00 pm on 12/22/10, the parties shall file a joint statement indicating whether they have resolved all the issues raised in defendant's motion, and if so, stating that plaintiff seeks to withdraw that motion without prejudice. If the parties have not resolved all the issues, the joint statement shall set forth the parties' efforts to comply with Local Rule 37.2 and list the remaining issues in dispute. Plaintiff shall file its response regarding any remaining issues by 1/5/11. That response shall include case law supporting plaintiff's position that defendant is not entitled to any contested discovery. Defendant shall file its reply by 1/12/11. This Court will set a future status hearing date after reviewing the above filings. The parties are reminded that all fact discovery shall be completed by 4/1/11, and that no extension of that deadline shall be granted. (rbf, ) (Entered: 12/14/2010)

No extensions of any of those deadlines shall be granted. As discussed on the record, defendant shall complete its review of plaintiffs initial production of emails, and determine whether defendant seeks any attachments or emails from an expanded period of time, by 11/30/10. On further consideration, by 12/10/10, the parties shall meet and confer in person or by telephone under Local Rule 37.2 regarding any discovery disputes. At the 12/14/10 status, the parties shall be prepared to discuss whether any motions to compel are anticipated, including with regard to plaintiff's lost profits claims. Mailed notice.

MINUTE entry before Honorable Michael T. Mason: Status hearing held and continued to 10/27/10 at 9:30 am. Counsel report on the status of fact discovery. The Court is disappointed with the slow pace of the parties' progress in discovery, particularly as it pertains to electronically stored information (ESI). Among other things, counsel reported they only recently learned that plaintiff's electronic media do not contain any e-mails. Further, despite the parties' entry into an Agreement Relative to the Production of ESI on 6/30/10 106 , plaintiff's counsel indicated that he has yet to confirm with his client how - whether through a yahoo, gmail, or other account - plaintiff communicated via e-mail. That issue should have long since been resolved in connection with this Courts directives that the parties review, and meet and confer regarding, this Courts Standing Order for Electronic Discovery [92, 115]. Plaintiffs apparent failure to begin - much less complete - e-mail discovery, coupled with its production of certain responsive, non-privileged ESI in a hard copy format rendering it effectively useless to defendant, demonstrate that plaintiff has not complied with this Court's order that it complete its production of ESI no later than 10/1/10 125 . The parties also report on a number of existing and potential discovery disputes. If good faith efforts under Local Rule 37.2 do not resolve those disputes, any motions to compel shall be filed no later than 10/29/10. By 10/15/10, defense counsel shall email, to this Court's proposed order email address, a copy of the document discussed during today's status. This Court urges the parties to make greater efforts to proceed diligently with discovery, including oral fact discovery. At the next status, the parties shall be prepared to propose agreed dates for the close of fact discovery, the parties' Rule 26(a)(2) expert disclosures, and the close of expert discovery.Mailed notice.

The parties are reminded that they should be proceeding diligently with discovery of ESI as well as any third party discovery.

MINUTE entry before Honorable Michael T. Mason: Status hearing held. The parties shall file on the Court's CM/ECF system their agreement regarding electronically stored information, including any requests to inspect computer hard-drives or other electronic media, by 6/30/10. With respect to plaintiff's document productions, other than any documents that may be in the files of plaintiff's former legal counsel, plaintiff shall make available for inspection and defendant shall inspect, or plaintiff shall copy and produce to defendant, all non-privileged documents responsive to defendant's discovery requests in plaintiff's possession, custody, or control, by 7/2/10. With respect to defendant's document productions, defendant shall make available for inspection, or copy and produce, all non-privileged documents responsive to plaintiff's discovery requests in defendant's possession, custody, or control, by 6/28/10. If defendant makes those documents available for inspection, plaintiff shall inspect them by 7/2/10. If either party has any issue with the others discovery responses or productions, the parties shall meet and confer pursuant to Local Rule 37.2 by 7/12/10. Any motions to compel shall be filed by 7/16/10, and responses shall be filed by 7/23/10. The parties are again reminded that Local Rule 37.2 requires, among other things, consultation in person or by telephone regarding their specific discovery differences.

The parties are also reminded that, other than the additional interrogatories permitted under this Court's prior order 101 , all written discovery requests, including those to third parties, shall be served sufficiently in advance of the written fact discovery deadline of 7/26/10 to permit responses to be served and documents to be produced on or before that deadline. Finally, with respect to plaintiff's pending second motion to compel turnover of legal files 90 , the Court again instructs plaintiff to make a good faith effort to offer adequate security consistent with this Court's 5/11/10 turnover order 85 and to resolve the turnover dispute without further Court involvement. Failure to do so may result in sanctions. (rbf, ) (Entered: 06/23/2010)

MINUTE entry before Honorable Michael T. Mason: Plaintiff's motion to redact portions of the 4/30/10 hearing transcript 86 is granted in part as follows. The 4/30/10 hearing involved testimony related to a billing dispute between plaintiff and its former legal counsel. While information disclosed during the sealed portion of that hearing may be relevant to this lawsuit, defendant has not demonstrated that it is entitled to obtain that information outside of the formal discovery process. As a result, the Court orders that the docketed, public version of that transcript be redacted beginning at page 33 line 10 through page 59 line 23, inclusive. To the extent defendant has not already done so, defendant may serve, by 6/28/10, up to five additional interrogatories on plaintiff regarding the whereabouts of documents, the financial status and assets of plaintiff, and the financial status and assets of Ashokkumar ("Eddie") Punjabi. Plaintiff's responses to any such interrogatories shall be served by 7/9/10. This order shall not limit or otherwise impact any objections plaintiff may raise to any such interrogatories served by defendant. Mailed notice. (rbf, ) (Entered: 06/23/2010)

MINUTE entry before Honorable Michael T. Mason: Ronald Rassin is to be present at the 4/22/10 status hearing. Mr. Rassin and his firm, Gordon Rappole & Miller LLC, have filed an amended emergency motion for reconsideration 59 of our 3/23/10 Order instructing them to turn over certain documents 54 . In the emergency motion, Mr. Rassin suggests, for the first time, that there is a state court action related to the asserted attorneys lien, if any, and request to compel turnover in this case. (Mot. 7, Exh. F). Mr. Rassin should be prepared to inform the Court of the specific details of the state court action at the status hearing. The parties and Mr. Rassin should also be prepared to argue the jurisdictional issues raised in the motion and provide relevant supporting authority. Further, Mr. Rassin should be prepared to address the eleven areas of alleged error identified in the motion (Mot. 12 a-k) and provide authority establishing that this case involves exceptional circumstances that justify reconsideration. Mr. Rassin is advised that, contrary to the arguments raised in the motion, this Court did not adjudicate the fee dispute. Rather, we ordered Mr. Rassin and his firm to provide plaintiffs current counsel with certain documents counsel received in connection with this case. The Clerk's Office is directed to mail a copy of this Order to Ronald Rassin at Gordon, Rappold & Miller LLC, 20 South Clark Street, Ste. 2600, Chicago, IL 60603. In addition, Judge Mason's chambers will notify Mr. Rassin, via telephone, of this Order. (rbf, ) (Entered: 04/19/2010)
