[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A gentle suggestion - if you do not regularly practice in the federal district courts, it may not be constructive for you to opine on what will, could or should happen with respect to procedural issues like issuance of summons or responses.  There are a number of posts here that present themselves as knowledgeable but are not.[/quote]

If you have no appreciation of the partisan (outcome determinative) leanings of many federal judges then you don’t spend much time in federal courthouses, including the Supreme Court. The d Solon of the wheel for  trial judge and appellate panel will tell an experienced practitioner much about the fate of their case. The fingers are always on the scale to the point of linking a sample pro hac motion (so that two lawyers with experience as AUSAs can try to comply with the local rules. Ordinarily the motion is denied sua sponte for failure to comply with the specified local rule). The lawyer seeking admission is expected to have read and comply with the court’s rules, snd most courts have little patience with laziness and/or incompetence.

BTW there isn’t much “procedural” in nature when it comes to a Summons. It’s a standard form. The plaintiff prepares the proposed summons(es), together with a Civil Cover Sheet, for filing with the Complaint. The Clerk then issues the summons by affixing a signature and seal of the court, which is then returned to counsel by email attachment for service. This is all done in accordance with Rule 4 and any applicable court rule. It all can be done electronically through CM/ECF. “Response” to a Summons. Okay, umm sure. [/quote]

I don’t think you properly read the post to which you are responding.  [/quote]
