This 9th day of March 2006, it appears to the Court that: 
(1) 
The defendant-appellant, Charles H. West Farms, Inc. (“West 
Farms”), has petitioned this Court, pursuant to Supreme Court Rule 42, to 
accept an appeal from an interlocutory order of the Superior Court dated 
January 18, 2006.  The Superior Court’s order denied West Farm’s motion 
to dismiss the plaintiffs’ complaint on the ground that the statute of 
limitations had expired.

West Farms filed its application for certification to take an 
interlocutory appeal in the Superior Court on January 27, 2006.  The 
Superior Court denied the certification application on February 27, 2006.

Applications for interlocutory review are addressed to the 
sound discretion of this Court.  In the exercise of its discretion, this Court 
has concluded that the application for interlocutory review does not meet the
