A hearing on the motion to dismiss the case before U.S. District Judge Sara Ellis, challenging the tactics of federal agents in Chicago, is set to begin in about 20 minutes.

It says plaintiffs seek to "throw in the towel" with "transparent procedural gamesmanship," and insists a dismissal with prejudice prevents future claims.
