Zambezia Film Pty, Ltd. v. Does 1-33, No. 13 C 1323, Slip Op. (N.D. Ill. Mar. 12, 2013) (Shadur, Sen. J.).
Zambezia Film Pty, Ltd. v. Does 1-60, No. 13 C 1741, Slip Op. (N.D. Ill. Mar. 12, 2013) (Shadur, Sen. J.).
Judge Shadur sua sponte ordered plaintiff Zambezia Film to provide the Court a courtesy copy of its recently filed copyright complaints in both of the cases. The Court’s records suggested that Zambezia Film had not timely provided a courtesy copy of its complaint. The Court used to exempt parties from serving courtesy copies of complaints, but that changed after the Clerk’s office stopped providing hard copies of complaints to chambers. The Court did not, however, impose a sanction for the failure to serve a courtesy copy of the complaint, as it sometimes does for other pleadings.
