- ilnd;;1:11-cv-04458_de187 RegisterActionDescriptionText "MINUTE entry before the Honorable Jeffrey Cole: The plaintiff has filed a Motion to compel. 179 . The Motion states that the plaintiff has "corresponded" with the FDIC but has been "unsuccessful." There are three deficiencies with the motion. First, it does not have protruding tabs for the exhibits as required by Local Rule. Local Rule 5.2(d). While that omission is easily rectified, more importantly, the motion does not contain the necessary certification required by the Rule. And finally, under Local Rule 37.2, letters and emails are not sufficient to satisfy the Rule's quite explicit requirement that only personal meetings or conferences by phone suffice. The reason for the Rule is "[t]o curtail undue delay and expense in the administration of justice." If the parties can resolve the issue, the court's time is saved and available to be directed to those cases that present issues that cannot be amicably resolved. Each hour needlessly spent on a dispute is an hour squandered. See Chicago Observer, Inc. v. City of Chicago, 929 F.2d 325, 329 (7th Cir.1991) This is a problem that the Seventh Circuit has repeatedly adverted to. See, e.g., Otto v. Variable Annuity Life Ins. Co., 134 F.3d 841, 854 (7th Cir.1998); Channell v. Citicorp Nat. Services, Inc., 89 F.3d 379, 386 (7th Cir.1996); Szabo Food Service, Inc. v. Canteen Corp., 823 F.2d 1073, 1077 (7th Cir.1987). The motion is denied without prejudice to its refiling after there has been compliance with the Local Rules. The case will not be heard on November 13th. However, the FDIC is reminded that it must timely comply with subpoenas and its rights are not superior to those of private litigants. Mailed notice (cdh, ) (Entered: 11/06/2014)" @default.
