Proposed Orders

All substantive motions must be accompanied by a proposed order.  Proposed Orders need not be “filed,” but must be "submitted" for the Court to consider, modify, and, if appropriate, enter electronically.  Proposed orders must be attached to an e-mail sent to the Court’s proposed order inbox (Proposed_Order_Blakey@ilnd.uscourts.gov ). The subject line of the e-mail must include the case number and name, the docket number of the corresponding motion, if any, and the title of the order that is proposed. All such documents must be submitted to the Court in Word format at or near the time of filing of the related motion.  Such proposed orders should also be served on all parties.  Again, parties should not file proposed orders on the electronic docket; orders should only be filed by the Judge.
