Plaintiffs' counsel failed to comply with the Court's order. Furthermore, it appears to the Court that Plaintiffs' counsel had to have been aware of the Court's order because he was aware that the Court had scheduled a status conference via the same order. (Id.). Accordingly, by July 10, 2024, Plaintiffs' counsel is directed to show cause why this matter should not be dismissed for failure to prosecute. Failure to respond to this order may result in this matter being dismissed without further order of the Court. Signed by Judge Virginia M. Hernandez Covington on 6/26/2024. |
| 06/25/2024 | ENDORSED ORDER: The Court scheduled a status conference for June 25, 2024, at 3:00 PM. (Doc. # 97). Counsel for Plaintiff did not attend.

Furthermore, the Court was unable to reach Counsel by telephone despite multiple tries and the Court was not able to leave a message on the phone number given by Counsel. Counsel is to immediately file a notice informing the Court how it can reach him by telephone, in other words, the Court needs to have a working telephone number. Signed by Judge Virginia M. Hernandez Covington on 6/25/2024. |

| 12/08/2023 | NOTICE informing the parties that they may consent to the jurisdiction of a United States magistrate judge by filing Form AO 85 Notice, Consent, and Reference of a Civil Action to a Magistrate Judge using the event Consent to Jurisdiction of US Magistrate Judge. (Signed by Deputy Clerk). |
| 12/08/2023 | ENDORSED ORDER: The Court is aware of the notice entered in this case, explaining that Local Rule 3.02(a)(2) requires the filing of a uniform case management report with forty or seventy days, depending on the circumstances of the case. However, under Local Rule 1.01(b), a judge can modify or suspend for all or part of an action the application of any rule, except Rule 1.05(a). This Court finds it beneficial to enter a fast-track scheduling order in certain categories of cases before entry of a case management and scheduling order. Additionally, in cases that are not fast-tracked, this Court finds it efficient to have the parties confer and file case management reports within 14 days after the defendant's responsive pleading is due or within 14 days after a case is removed to this Court. In light of this, the Court hereby suspends Local Rule 3.02(a)(2) in this case. At a time the Court deems appropriate, the Court will enter a further order in this case setting either a deadline to file a completed uniform case management report or various fast-track deadlines for the case. Signed by Judge Virginia M. Hernandez Covington on 12/8/2023. |
| 12/08/2023 | NOTICE of Local Rule 3.02(a)(2), which requires the parties in every civil proceeding, except those described in subsection (d), to file a case management report (CMR) using the uniform form at www.flmd.uscourts.gov. The CMR must be filed (1) within forty days after any defendant appears in an action originating in this court, (2) within forty days after the docketing of an action removed or transferred to this court, or (3) within seventy days after service on the United States attorney in an action against the United States, its agencies or employees. Judges may have a special CMR form for certain types of cases. These forms can be found at www.flmd.uscourts.gov under the Forms tab for each judge. (Signed by Deputy Clerk). |
| 12/07/2023 | ENDORSED ORDER: The Motion for Leave to File Under Seal and/or Redacted Documents for Good Cause (Doc. # 2) is granted. Plaintiff Wang is permitted to file the documents specified in the motion under seal to permit Wang to move for a temporary asset restraint. Additionally, while Wang states that he "has moved for a temporary asset restraint" (Doc. # 2 at 2), the Court has not yet received this motion. If Wang seeks a temporary restraining order, he is directed to file a motion. The documents specified in the motion will only remain under seal until the Court has ruled on the request for a temporary restraining order. Additionally, the Court advises that a motion for a temporary restraining order should be filed separately from a motion for preliminary injunction, as they seek different forms of injunctive relief and should not be combined in one motion.
