- ilnd;;1:19-cv-07013_de22 RegisterActionDescriptionText "MINUTE entry before the Honorable Matthew F. Kennelly: The Court has reviewed plaintiff's status report filed on 4/28/2020 (dkt. no. 20). The report discloses that defendants and their counsel (Kevin D. McHugh of Klein McHugh Law in Elgin, IL) are, for all practical purposes, not simply ignoring the case but also ignoring and disregarding orders by the Court. Specifically, they have failed to produce to plaintiff documents they agreed to produce some time ago--and have not communicated with plaintiff to explain the delay--and they have ignored, twice, orders by the Court directing them to participate in filing a joint status report. It is conceivable that there may be some good reason for what may be fairly characterized as "radio silence" on the defense side of this case, but without some effort on their part to communicate with either plaintiff's counsel or the Court, there is no way to know. For these reasons, the Court orders defendants to show cause in writing, by no later than 5/6/2020, why they should not be held in default and orders defense counsel Mr. McHugh to show cause in writing, by no later than 5/6/2020, why he should not be sanctioned. The Court requests that plaintiff's counsel attempt to communicate with defense counsel by telephone (even if only via voice mail) to attempt to advise him of this order, even though he will be receiving it via CM/ECF.
