18 ** TEXT ONLY ORDER **
Plaintiff's 17 motion to postpone the preliminary pretrial conference is DENIED.
Because plaintiff is proceeding pro se, there is no need for the parties to present a
report to the court, nor is it necessary for defendants to have answered or otherwise
responded to plaintiff's amended complaint, nor is it necessary or efficient for
plaintiff to attempt to file motions without first having received the court's
preliminary pretrial conference order and the attachments to it. Rather, it is
important promptly to set a calendar for this lawsuit with firm pretrial deadlines
and a firm trial date so that we can ensure the just, speedy and inexpensive
resolution of this matter as required by F.R. Civ. Pro. 1. Signed by Magistrate
Judge Stephen L. Crocker on 3/11/2011. (jef),(ps) (Entered: 03/11/2011)

56 MOTION to Amend Briefing Schedule, (Eldridge, Kevin) (Entered:
04/12/2012)
04/16/2012
59 ** TEXT ONLY ORDER **
Plaintiff's motion to amend the schedule 56 is DENIED. Plaintiff has known of his
likely need for expert witness testimony in this lawsuit since the March 17, 2011
telephonic pretrial conference, and plaintiff's later−retained attorney has known of
the need for experts since he appeared on December 29, 2011, see 41 . Plaintiff has
known since January 31, 2012 (the date we amended the schedule a second time 48
) that his expert disclosures would be due by April 6, 2012. By incorporating the
March 17, 2011 preliminary pretrial conference order, this court reminded plaintiff
that "if a party does not follow the requirements of Rule 26(a)(2) by his deadline to
disclose expert witnesses, then this court will not allow that expert witness to
present evidence in this case," and that the calendar did not allow for extensions,
"so the parties should begin looking for expert witnesses right away if this type of
witness might be important for summary judgment or for trial." ( 19 at 3) Rather
than heed these admonitions, plaintiff, by counsel, waited until the date his expert
disclosures were due to seek a 6 week extension because he hadn't even gathered
the information he deemed necessary to contact potential expert witnesses about
his lawsuit, let alone generate any expert opinions. This is an utterly inadequate
excuse, and as defendant confirms in opposition 57 , the requested extension would
greatly prejudice defendant in this case. As a result of having missed his expert
disclosure deadline in this manner, plaintiff has lost his right to present expert
witnesses or their opinions in this lawsuit. Signed by Magistrate Judge Stephen
Crocker on 4/16/2012. (llj) Modified on 4/16/2012 (llj). (Entered: 04/16/2012)

62 ** TEXT ONLY ORDER **
Plaintiff's motion for reconsideration 60 is DENIED. Plaintiff has not presented
any evidence or argument that he could not have presented in his first motion for
another scheduling amendment 59 and in any event his new assertions are weak
and unsupported. Defendant was entitled to timely disclosure of any plaintiff
experts so that defendant could prepare its summary judgment motion in time for
submission by the May 21, 2012 deadline, which now is less than three weeks
hence. The court has amended the schedule twice to accommodate both sides; it
will not amend it a third time absent significantly more compelling reasons than
those presented by plaintiff. Signed by Magistrate Judge Stephen L. Crocker on

The court is in receipt of a letter from Special Agent Jacob R. Andreska of the U.S.
Office of Personnel Management Federal Investigative Services apparently
requesting release of all sealed documents in this case for purposes of considering
plaintiff for employment. Dkt. # 106 . While the court will ignore this request for
lack of standing, and because the request is better directed to plaintiff outside of
this lawsuit, after reviewing several of the sealed documents in this case, it appears
that a number of documents do not meet the requirement for filing under seal
pursuant to this court's Administrative Order 309 and the protective order entered
in this case dkt. # 44 . Accordingly, both sides shall have ten days to explain why
the court should not unseal some or all of the documents filed under seal in this
case, or, at least, why they should not be required to file redacted versions. Signed

** TEXT ONLY ORDER **
Pursuant to this court's October 9, 2013, order, plaintiff Bashir Sheik submitted an
affidavit demonstrating that complete diversity between the parties existed at the
time he filed his complaint. (Dkt. # 127 .) (Plaintiff's submission was late, but the
court will grant his motion for extension of time (dkt. # 126 ) filed along with his
submission.) Defendant concedes the same. Accordingly, plaintiff's motion to
continue jurisdiction over state claims (dkt. # 122 ) is GRANTED and the court
will vacate its July 3, 2013, judgment.
The court notes that yesterday plaintiff filed a notice of appeal from the
now−vacated final judgment. Under the circumstances, the court assumes plaintiff
will either withdraw his notice of appeal or, failing that, the Seventh Circuit will
reject it for lack of jurisdiction. Plaintiff also filed a "motion for disclosure,"
seeking another chance to submit responses to defendant's proposed findings of
facts. (Dkt. # 134 ) For the reasons previously explained in this court's order
denying plaintiff's motion for reconsideration of the court's grant of summary
judgment to defendant on plaintiff's federal law claims (dkt. # 125 ), that motion is
DENIED. Signed by District Judge William M. Conley on 11/1/2013. (jef),(ps)
