On December 27, 2017, the plaintiff notified the court in writing that the

proposed consent judgment (dkt. no. 91-1) and to vacate all pending deadlines
and motions. Dkt. No. 91.
The court GRANTS the joint motion to approve consent judgment. Dkt.
No. 91. The court will sign and docket the consent judgment (dkt. no. 91-1) as
a separate docket entry. The court ORDERS that once the consent judgment
has been docketed, the clerk’s office shall administratively close the case. The
1

court VACATES all pending deadlines, and DENIES AS MOOT the plaintiff’s
motion to compel discovery (dkt. no. 75) and the defendants’ motion for
judgment on the pleadings (dkt. no. 84).
Dated in Milwaukee, Wisconsin this 23rd day of January, 2018.
