SOUTHERN DIVISION

JOHN DOE, et al.,
Plaintiffs,
v.

Case No. 16-13137

RICHARD SNYDER, et al.,
Defendants.
/
ORDER SETTING DATES FOR BRIEFING
On December 17, 2019, the court held a joint status conference for the cases of
Does v. Snyder, No.16-13137 (“Does II”) and Does v. Curran, No. 18-1935 (“Curran”),
which was recently transferred to this court as a companion to Does II. The parties
agreed at the conference that the equitable claims of the Curran Plaintiffs are subsumed
by the equitable claims currently being litigated by the Does II certified class. The court
explained that it will dismiss the equitable claims in Curran upon receipt of the parties’
anticipated stipulated order to extend the preliminary injunction issued in Curran during
the pendency of Does II. The court expects the parties to promptly begin work on
formulating such a proposed order.
During the conference, Plaintiffs’ counsel in Does II stated that by Monday,
December 23, 2019, they would file a motion addressing their remaining constitutional
claims related to vagueness, strict liability, and the First Amendment. The parties
agreed to a briefing schedule that will potentially allow the remaining constitutional
challenges to be heard at the motion hearing for the ex post facto Does II claims
currently scheduled for February 5, 2020. Accordingly,

IT IS ORDERED that the Does II Plaintiffs’ motion on the remaining constitutional
claims is due December 23, 2019.
IT ORDERED that Defendants’ response is due January 13, 2020.
FINALLY, IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiffs’ reply is due January 24, 2020.
