Order [non-document] Counsel and the parties are hereby advised that this Court will not accept ex parte telephone calls to Chambers regarding substantive issues in pending cases. The Court speaks through its docket. While it may be appropriate to call Chambers regarding routine, non-substantive matters (such as requests for the dial in information for an upcoming status conference, etc.), it is not appropriate under any circumstances for counsel to call Chambers ex parte for guidance or clarification regarding substantive matters, including matters relating to existing case management deadlines, requests to file briefing, and/or inquiries regarding the status of pending motions. All questions regarding substantive matters in pending cases must be filed as a motion on the public docket, with the following exception. If a dispute arises during a deposition that requires this Court's immediate assistance, the parties may call Chambers for assistance, but must do so jointly (and not on an ex parte basis). Judge Pamela A. Barker on 10/14/2025. (P,K)

Order

Oct 24, 2025

Order [non-document] On October 14, 2025, this Court issued an Order directing Petitioners to "(1) forward a copy of the Petition and its Exhibits (Doc. Nos. 1 through 5 ) and this Order to each of the Respondents immediately upon receipt of this Order; and (2) file a Notice on the docket confirming that they have done so." (Doc. No. 6 .) Petitioners have failed to do so. In addition, the docket reflects that two of the certified mail packages provided by Petitioners to the Clerk of Court for service on Respondents have been returned as undeliverable because counsel for Petitioners improperly used postage stamps on packages that were over one-half inch thick. Given Petitioners' request that this Court expedite review of the Petition, Petitioners have an obligation to comply with this Court's Order and to promptly serve the Petition and its attachments on Respondents. The Court therefore once again ORDERS Petitioners to immediately (1) forward a copy of the Petition and its Exhibits (Doc. Nos. 1 through 5) and the Court's Order at Doc. No. 6 to each of the Respondents immediately upon receipt of this Order; and (2) file a Notice on the docket confirming that they have done so. Judge Pamela A. Barker on 10/24/2025. (P,K)
