DOE v. Curran et al

Filing 88

ORDER Setting date of 1/3/2020 for submission of proposed stipulated order addressing the continuation of the preliminary injunction. Signed by District Judge Robert H. Cleland. (LWag)

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
SOUTHERN DIVISION

JOHN DOE,
Plaintiff,
v.

Case No. 18-11935

BRENDAN P. CURRAN, et al.,
Defendants.
/
ORDER SETTING DATE FOR SUBMISSION OF PROPOSED STIPULATED ORDER
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 attended by counsel for all named parties in both cases. The Curran case
was recently transferred to this court as a companion to Does II.
At the conference, the parties discussed the overlapping legal claims in Curran
and Does II. The parties agreed that the equitable claims in Curran are subsumed by
the equitable claims currently being litigated by the Does II certified class. Based on the
agreement of the parties, and to increase docket efficiency and clarity, the court
explained that it will dismiss the equitable claims of the Curran Plaintiffs. However, the
court also explained that it would not dissolve the preliminary injunction currently in
place in Curran while Does II is pending, and the parties agreed to submit a proposed
stipulated order to that effect. Upon receipt of the parties’ anticipated stipulated order to
extend the preliminary injunction, the court will dismiss the equitable claims in Curran.
The court expects the parties to promptly begin work on formulating such a proposed
order. Accordingly,

IT IS ORDERED that the parties submit a proposed stipulated order addressing
the continuation of the preliminary injunction by January 3, 2020.
