Big River Stay

On March 17, 2010, an order was issued staying this case through April 20, 2010, pending the hearing for preliminary injunction that was scheduled for April 15, 2010 in the related case before Judge McKinney in the Southern District of Indiana.

On April 13, 2010, Judge McKinney issued an order staying the case before him and vacating the hearing for preliminary injunction set for April 15, 2010. The order also stated, “The Court will issue an order granting Defendant’s Motion to Transfer . . . after the Kansas District Court resolves the pending motions to dismiss or, in the alternative, to transfer.”

In the interest of judicial efficiency and in order to avoid duplicating efforts and/or issuing conflicting rulings, the instant case pending in the Northern District of Illinois is also stayed, pending the resolution of the pending motions in the related case before the Kansas District Court. The parties are to inform this court when the Kansas court has issued its ruling, so that this court may determine the most appropriate way to proceed in light of those rulings.

The hearing set for April 20, 2010 is stricken.
It is so ordered.

What's the status for the Kansas litigation? Has a date been set for trial or injunction or stay? All parties have responded and filed, sooo......?

Yes, Skunky, with all these stays, I too am a bit confused on the schedule of upcoming events... could you publish a revised calendar going forward?
