Thompson___ UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE Case 2 Document 59-1 Filed Page 1 of 2 A copy of this checklist is available at the website for the USCA, 11th Circuit at Effective on December 1, 2013, the new fee to file an appeal will increase from to CIVIL APPEALS JURISDICTION CHECKLIST 1. Appealable Orders Courts of Appeals have jurisdiction conferred and strictly limited by statute (a) Appeals from final orders pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291 Only final orders and judgments of district courts, or final orders of bankruptcy courts which have been appealed to and fully resolved by a district court under 28 U.S.C.§ 158, generally are appealable. A final decision is one that “ends the litigation on the merits and leaves nothing for the court to do but execute the judgment.” Pitney Bowes, Inc. v. Mestre, 701 F.2d 1 365, 1 368 ( 11th Ci r. 1 983). A magistrate judge’s report and recommendation is not final and appealable until judgment thereon is entered by a district court judge. 28 U.S.C. § (b) In cases involving multiple parties or multiple claims, a judgment as to fewer than all parties or all claims is not a final, appealable decision unless the district court has certified the judgment for immediate review under Fed.R.Civ.P. 54(b). Williams v. Bishop, 732 F.2d 885, 885- 86 (11th Cir. 1984). A judg ment which resolves all issues except matters, such as attorneys’ fees and costs, that are collateral to the merits, is immediately appealable. Budinich v. Becton Dickinson & Co., 486 201, 108 S.Ct. 1717, 100 L.Ed.2d 178 LaChance v. Duffy’s Draft House, Inc., 146 F.3d 832, 837 (11th Cir. 1998). (c) Appeals pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § Appeals are permitted from orders “granting, continuing, modifying, refusing or dissolving injunctions or refusing to dissolve or modify injunctions...” and from “ i nterlocutory decrees... determining the rights and liabilities of parties to admiralty cases in which appeals from final decrees are allowed.” Interlocutory appeals from orders denying temporary restraining orders are not permitted. (d) Appeals pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § and Fed.R.App.P. 5 The certification specified in 28 U.S.C. § must be obtained before a petition for permission to appeal is filed in the Court of Appeals. The district court’s denial of a motion for certification is not itself appealable. (e) Appeals pursuant to judicially created exceptions to the finality rule Limited exceptions are discussed in cases including, but not limited to Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541, 546, 1221, 93 L.Ed. 1528 Atlantic Fed. Sav. & Loan Ass’n v. Blythe Eastman Paine Webber, Inc., 890 F.2d 371, 376 (11th Cir. 1989); Gillespie v. United States Steel Corp., 379 U.S. 148, 157, 85 S.Ct. 308, 312, 13 199 Rev. 4/04 Case 2 Document 59-1 Filed Page 2 of 2 2. Time for Filing The timely filing of a notice of appeal is mandatory and jurisdictional. Rinaldo v. Corbett, 256 F.3d 1276, 1278 (11th Cir. 2001). In civil cases, Fed.R.App.P. 4(a) and (c) set the following time limits (a) Fed.R.App.P. A notice of appeal in compliance with the requirements set forth in Fed.R.App.P. 3 must be filed in the district court within 30 days after the entry of the order or judgment appealed from. However, if the United States or an officer or agency thereof is a party, the notice of appeal must be filed in the district court within 60 days after such entry. THE NOTICE MUST BE RECEIVED AND FILED IN THE DISTRICT COURT NO LATER THAN THE LAST DAY OF THE APPEAL PERIOD – no additional days are provided for mailing. Special filing provisions for inmates are discussed below. (b) Fed.R.App.P. “If one party timely files a notice of appeal, any other party may file a notice of appeal within 14 days after the date when the first notice was filed, or within the time otherwise prescribed by this Rule 4(a), whichever period ends later.” (c) Fed.R.App.P. If any party makes a timely motion in the district court under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure of a type specified in this rule, the time for appeal for all parties runs from the date of entry of the order disposing of the last such timely filed motion. (d) Fed.R.App.P. and Under certain limited circumstances, the district court may extend the time to file a notice of appeal. Under Rule the time may be extended if a motion for an extension is filed within 30 days after expiration of the time otherwise provided to file a notice of appeal, upon a showing of excusable neglect or good cause. Under Rule the time may be extended if the district court finds upon motion that a party did not timely receive notice of the entry of the judgment or order, and that no party would be prejudiced by an extension. (e) Fed.R.App.P. 4(c) If an inmate confined to an institution files a notice of appeal in either a civil case or a criminal case, the notice of appeal is timely if it is deposited in the institution’s internal mail system on or before the last day for filing. Timely filing may be shown by a declaration in compliance with 28 U.S.C. § 1746 or a notarized statement, either of which must set forth the date of deposit and state that first-class postage has been prepaid. 3. Format of the notice of appeal Form 1, Appendix of Forms to the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure, is a suitable format. See also Fed.R.App.P. 3(c). A pro se notice of appeal must be signed by the appellant. 4. Effect of a notice of appeal A district court loses jurisdiction (authority) to act after the filing of a timely notice of appeal, except for actions in aid of appellate jurisdiction or to rule on a timely motion of the type specified in Fed.R.App.P.
Summary:
In 2013, indigent detainee filed a complaint against the City of Montgomery and a Municipal Court Judge for unconstitutionally ordering the petitioner to serve time for her inability to pay court-order fines and fees for their traffic violations. The complaint was originally filed in the Circuit Court of Montgomery County, Alabama and then transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Alabama, where it was consolidated with a similar case. In the amended complaint, petitioners alleged that the imprisonment orders violated their Sixth and Fourteenth Amendment Rights. Petitioners sought remedy through injunctive and declaratory relief. In 2014, the parties reached a settlement that provided new judicial procedures for the Municipal Court to follow regarding indigent defendants and nonpayment. It also included three declarations, most importantly, it declared that the constitutional principles set out in Bearden v. Georgia, 461 U.S. 660 and Turner v. Rogers, 131 S. Ct. 2507 (2011) applied to municipal court proceedings, and awarded plaintiff's attorney fees. The case closed in November 2014.

Summary:
On August 9, 2016, a group of individuals who were placed in jail because of an inability to pay fines, penalties, and other charges filed a class action lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri. The plaintiffs sued thirteen St. Louis County municipalities under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and § 2201. The plaintiffs, represented by ArchCity Defenders and private counsel, asked the court for declaratory, injunctive, and compensatory relief, claiming violations of the Fourth, Sixth, and Fourteenth Amendments. In their complaint, the plaintiffs claimed that the defendant municipalities engaged in a deliberate and coordinated conspiracy to fill their coffers by extorting money from thousands of poor, disproportionately African-American people in the St. Louis region. On April 24, 2017, the case was dismissed as to all defendant municipalities except the City of St. Ann. The case (including mediation efforts) is ongoing against the City.

Summary:
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) filed this Title VII retaliation suit against Quik-Chek, Inc. on behalf of a black employee. The EEOC alleged that Quik-Chek had fired the employee in retaliation for complaining about racial discrimination and threatening litigation over the discrimination and the company's response to her complaints. The parties reached a settlement in mediation, which the Court entered as a consent decree. The decree provided to the employee and contained an array of injunctive provisions. Defendant had ceased business operations, and the decree included provisions, such as antidiscrimination training and EEOC reporting, that would activate if Defendant resumed business activities. The case is closed.

Summary:
Plaintiffs, children in the custody of the New York City Child Welfare Administration ( CWA ), and children who, while not in the custody of CWA, are or will be at risk of abuse or neglect and whose status is known or should be known to CWA, sought declaratory and injunctive relief against both the city and state for systematic deficiencies that jeopardized their well-being. The case was filed on December 13, 1995, and the parties reached to two separate settlement agreements, one with the city and one with the state, on December 2, 1988. The plaintiffs returned to court in January 2001, seeking an order directing the state to comply with specific terms of the state settlement agreement. The court found that the state had acted with insufficient diligence in implementing the information management system, and therefore extended the terms of the agreement in this area and directed that the plaintiffs receive semi-annual reports. The defendants provided a January 2017 report to show that they were continuing to develop, implement, and update their information systems for child welfare needs. A year later, the court ended its supervision of the portions of the settlement that it had retained jurisdiction to enforce.

DEVOS, in her official capacity as United States Secretary of Education; KENNETH L. MARCUS, in his official capacity as Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights at the United States Department of Education; and UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION, SECTION DefendantSECTION s. Civil No. _______________ COMPLAINT FOR DECLARATORY AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF INTRODUCTION 1. Nearly half a century since the passage of Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (“Title IX”), sexual harassment and assault remain a widespread problem for students of all ages. In 1972, Congress delegated to SECTION DefendantSECTION U.S. Department of Education (“ED” or “the Agency”) the power and responsibility to hold educational institutions receiving federal funds accountable for their responses to sex discrimination. Since 1997, the Agency has set standards governing the responsibilities of funding recipients to address sexual harassment, including sexual assault, and to take steps to prevent it. Under statutes imposing virtually identical obligations, schools that receive federal funding have also been required to respond to and prevent harassment and assault on the basis of race, national origin, and Until now, 1 Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (“Title VI”); Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (“Section 504”); Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (“Title II”). Compare Title VI, 42 1 Case 1 Document 1 Filed Page 2 of 46 ED has imposed the same responsibilities on recipients to respond to harassment based on sex that it imposes on them to respond to harassment based on race, national origin, and disability. With the promulgation of the Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Sex in Education Programs or Activities Receiving Federal Financial Assistance regulation (RIN Docket No. (the “Rule”), however, the Agency has radically reduced the responsibility of schools to respond to complaints of sexual harassment and assault, creating an arbitrary and wholly unexplained disparity between its treatment of sex discrimination on the one hand, and race, national origin, and disability discrimination on the other. 2. SECTION DefendantSECTION ED Secretary Elisabeth DeVos has discarded decades of ED’s experience addressing sexual harassment and assault by promulgating regulatory provisions that sharply limit educational institutions’ obligations to respond to reports of sexual harassment and assault. If allowed to be implemented at educational institutions nationwide, these provisions will make the promise of equal educational opportunities irrespective of sex even more elusive. This is true for all students, including students of color, LGBTQ students, and students with and without disabilities, in grade school, high school, and higher education. 3. Public statements by ED Secretary DeVos and former Deputy Assistant Secretary Candice Jackson echo the historical justifications and stereotypes that once animated the second- U.S.C. § 2000d (“No person in the United States shall, on the ground of race, color, or national origin, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.”); with Title IX, 20 U.S.C. § 1681 (“No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity.”); and Section 504, 29 U.S.C. § 794(a) (“No otherwise qualified individual with a disability... shall, solely by reason of her or his disability, be excluded from the participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subj
Summary:
On May 14, 2020 the plaintiffs filed a lawsuit against the Department of Education (ED) in the United States District Court in the District of Maryland. The complaint alleged that regulations issued by ED sharply limit educational institutions' obligations to respond to reports of sexual harassment and assault and therefore contravened Title IX of the Education Amendmentsof 1972. The case is ongoing with responses to the complaint due on July 31, 2020.

Summary:
This was a class action challenge to New York's unnecessary institutionalization of children in foster care in psychiatric facilities. The initial settlement agreement, entered on February 28, 2011, provided for increased community-based placement opportunities for children in foster care with mental illness as well as individualized planning, staff training, and monitoring. In addition to the initial settlement agreement, on July 7, 2011, the plaintiffs agreed to release defendants from all liability in exchange for payment from defendants. On January 22, 2016, the parties agreed to extend the Court's jurisdiction until June 30, 2016, at which time its jurisdiction presumably expired.

Summary:
On May 22, 2012, several national and local news agencies filed a § 1983 lawsuit against the state of Idaho, alleging that the policy of the Idaho Department of Correction to prohibit public viewing of the preparatory phase of the execution process, during which the inmate is restrained and the IV is inserted, violates the First Amendment right to free speech and the Fourteenth Amendment right to due process. The District Court denied plaintiffs' motion for a preliminary injunction on June 5, 2012, but the Ninth Circuit reversed the denial, on June 8, in time for the injunction to apply to the scheduled execution of Richard Leavitt. On July 10, the District Court entered a permanent injunction ordering the Idaho Department of Corrections to modify their execution procedures to allow witnesses to the execution throughout the entire execution process.

Summary:
On August 9, 2004, the plaintiff filed this class action lawsuit in the Eastern District of New York on behalf of all Hispanic and/or non-white refreshment concession personnel who were hired, employed or offered employment by the defendants, Restaurant Associates and RA Tennis Corp. The plaintiff alleged that the defendants engaged in unlawful employment discrimination on the basis of national origin and race respecting the assignment of positions and locations to food vendors employed at the U.S. Open Tennis Tournament. Specifically, they alleged that the defendants were deliberately and overwhelmingly assigning beer wagons to non-Hispanic white people over other demographics. The parties soon reached a settlement which was approved by U.S. District Court Judge Robert M. Levy, and Restaurant Associates agreed to pay damages. This case is closed.

Specifically, they alleged that the defendants were deliberately and overwhelmingly assigning beer wagons to non-Hispanic white people over other demographics. The parties soon reached a settlement which was approved by U.S. District Court Judge Robert M. Levy, and Restaurant Associates agreed to pay damages. This case is closed.
