- Order (PAPERLESS or pdf attached)
PAPERLESS ORDER REGARDING PROCEDURES. The parties shall comply with the following procedures:
1. SERVICE: Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(m) requires service of summons and complaint to be perfected upon Defendants within 90 days after the filing of the complaint.* Unless service is waived, proof of service must be made to the Court by filing the server's affidavit. If a Defendant waives service, notice of the same shall be filed immediately. Failure to file proof of service or show good cause within 90 days will result in a dismissal without prejudice and without further notice.
2. DEFAULTS: In the event a served Defendant does not appear in this action, the Plaintiff(s) shall file a Motion for Clerk's Default within seven (7) days of the deadline for the Defendant to file an Answer or otherwise appear. Motions for Default Final Judgment shall be filed within seven (7) days of the entry of a Clerk's Default. Any motions for default final judgment must comply with the procedures described in the Court's Standing Order on Default Final Judgment, available under Attachments at https://www.flsd.uscourts.gov/content/judge-beth-bloom. Plaintiff's failure to file a Motion for Clerk's Default or a Motion for Default Final Judgment within the specified times may result in dismissal without prejudice and without further notice as to the Defendant.
3. CERTIFICATE OF INTERESTED PARTIES: Within twenty-one (21) days of an appearance by a Defendant in this case, the parties, including governmental parties, must file certificates of interested parties and corporate disclosure statements that contain a complete list of persons, associated persons, firms, partnerships, or corporations that have a financial interest in the outcome of this case, including subsidiaries, conglomerates, affiliates, parent corporations, and other identifiable legal entities related to a party (to the extent they have not already done so). Throughout the pendency of the action, the parties are under a continuing obligation to amend, correct, and update the certificates. The parties must not include Judge Bloom and the assigned U.S. Magistrate Judge as interested parties unless they have an interest in the litigation.
4. JOINT SCHEDULING REPORTS: Within twenty-one (21) days of an appearance by a Defendant in this case, the parties are directed to prepare and file a joint scheduling report, as required by Local Rule 16.1. The joint scheduling report and proposed order shall include all information required by Local Rule 16.1(b)(2) and (3). In drafting the Joint Proposed Scheduling Order, the parties shall review the Court's Standing Order on Joint Scheduling Reports, found under Attachments, and utilize the Court's Template Scheduling Order, found under Civil Procedures at https://www.flsd.uscourts.gov/content/judge-beth-bloom.
5. FILING OF MOTIONS: All filings must have one-inch margins, be double spaced with 12-point Times New Roman font and be fully justified. Single spacing is only permitted for footnotes.
6. PROPOSED ORDERS: Pursuant to the Court's CM/ECF Administrative Procedures, proposed orders shall be attached to the Motion and shall be submitted to the Court by e-mail in Word format at bloom@flsd.uscourts.gov.
7. EXTENSIONS OF TIME: All motions for extensions of time, including unopposed motions, must include: (1) the conferral statement required under Local Rule 7.1(a)(3); (2) a specific statement showing good cause why the deadline cannot be met and the requested relief should be granted; and (3) a statement as to whether the request impacts the deadline to file a dispositive motion or trial date.
8. WARNING ON THE USE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: Although artificial intelligence ("AI") may be a useful tool, it is known to fabricate, or "hallucinate" cases. Therefore, attorneys or pro se litigants who uses AI to draft briefs may inadvertently include fake cases or quotations in their filings. Accordingly, persons who choose to use an AI tool do so at their own risk. An attorney or pro se litigant will be sanctioned if he or she submits any filing to the Court that includes hallucinated cases or misrepresents the content of a real case.
9. ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES: The parties are further directed to review and follow the Court's procedures available at https://www.flsd.uscourts.gov/content/judge-beth-bloom.
The parties are advised that the failure to comply with any of the procedures contained in this Order or the Local Rules may result in the imposition of appropriate sanctions, including, but not limited to, the dismissal of this action or entry of default.
