Minute
MINUTE entry before the Honorable Jorge L. Alonso: The Court has reviewed the parties' Joint Status Report 301 and the latest Joint Status Report presented before Judge Finnegan 293 . This Court granted Plaintiffs' motion for class certification on 3/30/2024 291 . Amazon filed a motion for reconsideration 295 , which is not yet fully briefed. If the Court denies that motion, Amazon intends to file a petition for leave to appeal to the Seventh Circuit pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 23(f). The parties now submit competing proposals regarding a schedule for further proceedings. The parties agree that Amazon must update the class data before notice of certification can be sent to the class but disagree on a schedule for its production. Plaintiffs argue that Amazon should update the class data now so that Plaintiffs can formulate and seek approval of a notice plan in the meantime and have notice issued promptly if reconsideration and any/or any Rule 23(f) petition are resolved in favor of Plaintiffs and the class. Plaintiffs argue that the updating of class data is certain to impact the scope of the discovery disputes that remain pending before the Magistrate Judge and that the parties had agreed to table pending the class certification ruling. Plaintiffs submit proposed deadlines for June 2024 and July 2024, respectively, for Amazon to complete production of updated class data and for Plaintiffs to file a motion to approve class notice. Amazon opposes Plaintiffs' proposal, arguing that it is unlikely that Amazon's Rule 23(f) petition will be resolved by June 2024 and that it should not be required to complete the time-consuming and expensive process of collecting data that will only have to be recollected before notice can issue. Amazon proposes that a schedule for class notice be set only when there is more clarity regarding a schedule for summary judgment and trial. The Court agrees in part with Amazon and will defer setting a deadline for Plaintiffs to file a motion to approve class notice until resolution of the pending motion for reconsideration and any Rule 23(f) petition. With respect to Plaintiffs' proposal to set a deadline for Amazon to complete production of updated class data, based on Plaintiffs' representations, that issue is entwined with outstanding discovery disputes and open issues that remain pending before the Magistrate Judge. Accordingly, the Court hereby refers the parties' dispute regarding the scheduling of Amazon's production of updated class data to the Magistrate Judge for resolution. Plaintiffs' unopposed motion for extension of time 302 to file a response to Defendants' motion to reconsider is granted. Plaintiffs' response shall be due 5/22/2024, and Amazon's reply shall be due 6/5/2024. The status hearing set for 5/9/2024, and the motion hearing set for 5/14/2024, are stricken.
