JOINT STIPULATION AND [PROPOSED] ORDER TO ALTER SCHEDULING ORDERS

Because the current schedule has become very congested with motions to strike, and to

accommodate scheduling conflicts, the parties move for entry of this stipulated scheduling order,

subject to the Courts’ calendar, which would revise all scheduling orders currently in place for

this case:

Motions to Strike April 3, 2008

( Defendant- Intervenor filed their Motion to Strike on March 10, 2008. Should any party

file declarations with their opposition brief, the other parties shall be allowed to submit “rebuttal

declarations” with their Motion to Strike. Motions to Strike shall be limited to 10 pages in

length.)

Oppositions to Motions to Strike

And/Or Objections to Rebuttal Declarations April 8, 2008

(Page limitations: 10 pages, Plaintiffs will be allowed to file one 20 page brief opposing

both Defendant-Intervenor’s and Defendants’ challenges to their submitted declarations.) 

Should the Court feel that a hearing is necessary on the Motions to Strike, the parties are

prepared to have a telephonic hearing on April 11, 2008 at 1:30 p.m., the originally scheduled

hearing date for these motions.

Summary Judgment Reply briefs (10 page limit) April 14, 2008

Summary Judgment Sur-reply briefs (10 page limit) April 21, 2008

Summary Judgment Hearing date May 8, 2008
