MINUTE entry before the Honorable John F. Kness: Plaintiff-petitioners have this day filed their "Emergency Petition for Writs of Habeas Corpus," along with a motion styled "Petitioners' Motion for an Expedited Hearing on Emergency Petition for Writs of Habeas Corpus." Under Paragraph Three of Second Amended General Order 20-0012 ("In re: Coronavirus COVID-19 Public Emergency"), available on the Court's website ( www.ilnd.uscourts.gov ), all civil case hearings on or before May 1, 2020 are stricken and will be reset to a date on or after May 4, 2020. As a result, and in the light of the Emergency Petition, the Court construes Petitioners' Motion for an Expedited Hearing as seeking emergency relief. Counsel is thus directed to Paragraphs Five and Six of the Second Amended General Order, which provide for situations in which a party seeks emergency relief: "Any party may seek emergency relief in any case.... In addition to filing the emergency motion in the case in which emergency relief is sought, the party must file the motion in Case No. 20-cv-01792, which is a docket created to receive emergency motions filed under this Second Amended General Order. The emergency motion must be filed (i) electronically via CM/ECF if possible.... The emergency motion will be considered as soon as practicable by the presiding judge, an emergency judge, or the Chief Judge." Accordingly, to the extent they are in fact seeking emergency relief, Petitioners must comply with the procedure for emergency relief set forth in the Court's Second Amended General Order.

MINUTE entry: This order is entered by Judge Dow as the designated emergency judge and will also be entered on the regular docket in (1) Money, et al. v. Pritzker, et al., No. 20cv2093, assigned to Judge Seeger, and (2) Money, et al. v. Jeffreys, et al., No. 20cv2094, assigned to Judge Kness, and pertains only to the emergency motions filed on the docket in the special docket, In re: Emergency Motions During Coronavirus COVID-19 Public Emergency, No. 20cv1792. All other motions will be handled by the assigned judges in due course. Plaintiffs' emergency motion for TRO or preliminary injunction in Case No. 20cv2093 91 is taken under advisement. Plaintiffs' request for expedited treatment in Case No. 20cv2093 92 and Petitioners' request for expedited treatment in Case No. 20cv2094 93 are granted. Expedited briefing is ordered as follows: Defendants' brief is due on 4/6/2020 by 5pm; Plaintiffs' reply is due on 4/8/2020 by 5pm. In their response brief, Defendants may address any issues they would like relating to the requests for relief under Section 1983 and habeas, but are requested to give special attention to explaining exactly what measures, if any, are currently being taken in Illinois "to protect people in prisons from the impending spread of COVID-19 by releasing people in an effort to reduce populations" [See 91, at 33; see also id. at 33-39 (describing efforts by state and county governments to reduce prison population, particularly for those who are more vulnerable, close to completing their sentences and/or whose release is deemed to be less dangerous to the community)]. In their reply, Plaintiffs may address any issues they would like, but are requested to give special attention to the citation of any authority or precedent for a federal court order directing state officials to release large numbers of incarcerated individuals. [See 91, at 59-60 (citing Thaker, et al. v. Doll, et al., No. 20 C 0480, Dkt. 47 (M.D. Pa. Mar. 31, 2020), and indicating that in that case the court "granted a temporary restraining order requiring the immediate release of 11 prisoners in federal custody who suffer from chronic medical conditions and face a serious threat of injury or death if exposed to COVID-19")]. After reviewing the briefs, the Court will either issue a ruling by mail or set the matter for telephonic hearing. If a telephonic hearing will be held, it likely would take place on 4/10/2020 at 10:00 a.m. and the Court would provide the call-in information. All additional filings on this motion must be made in the emergency docket, No. 20-cv-1792, and in the underlying dockets as well. Mailed notice (cdh, ) (Entered: 04/02/2020)

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Robert M. Dow, Jr: Upon further review of the materials filed to date in Case Nos. 20-cv-2093 and 20-cv-2094, it appears that in their request for immediate relief, Plaintiffs ask the Court to "preliminarily certify Plaintiffs' proposed subclasses 1 and 2, and order Defendants to transfer [certain] individuals to their homes to self-isolate via a temporary medical furlough." [91, at 70-71.] The Court draws to counsel's attention the provisions of the Prison Litigation Reform Act, which (among other things) restrict the circumstances in which a court may enter an order "that has the purpose or effect of reducing or limiting the prison population." 18 U.S.C. ยง 3626(g)(4); see also Brown v. Plata, 563 U.S. 493 (2011). The Court requests that in their briefs the parties give careful attention to whether the PLRA applies to these cases. Mailed notice (cdh, ) (Entered: 04/03/2020)

MINUTE entry before the Honorable Robert M. Dow, Jr: This minute entry is issued by Judge Dow as designated emergency judge in Case Nos. 20-cv-2093 and 20-cv-2094. In view of the comprehensive briefs and supporting materials and the need for expedited ruling, the Court has determined that a telephonic hearing will not be necessary and will issue a written ruling as soon as possible. The Court appreciates the extraordinary effort of counsel to provide high quality briefs on a highly compressed schedule. The Court notes Plaintiffs' offer to call as witnesses the individuals who submitted the declarations attached to the reply brief. [See docket entry 28 in Case No. 20-cv-2093, at 45.]. That will not be necessary, as the Court will accept as true for purposes of this hearing their representations in the declarations. Nor will it be necessary to make arrangements for the named Plaintiffs/Petitioners to either appear by phone or file their own declarations, as the Court also will accept as true for present purposes the accuracy of counsels' representations about the medical conditions of the named Plaintiffs/Petitioners. In order to ensure that the Court has accurate information on an admittedly moving target, the Court directs counsel for Defendants to submit by 5:00 pm today and by 2:00 p.m. on each subsequent day until a ruling is issued an update on (1) how many inmates have been released through each available vehicle and the total reduction in IDOC population since March 2 [see docket entry 26 in Case No. 20-cv-2093, at 3-4 and docket entry 28 in Case No. 20-cv-2093, at 7 & n.1] and (2) how many incarcerated individuals have confirmed cases of COVID-19 at (a) each institution where the named Plaintiffs are housed and (b) across the entire IDOC system. If the Court is unable to issue a decision by the close of business tomorrow, it does have the capability to issue a decision on the docket electronically over the weekend and will do so.
