On May 7, 2010, plaintiffs Rocky Mountain Farmers Union, Redwood County Minnesota Corn

and Soybean Growers, Penny Newman Grain, Inc., Growth Energy, Renewable Fuels Association, Rex

Nederend, Nisei Farmers League, Fresno County Farm Bureau, and the California Dairy Campaign

(“plaintiffs”) requested to file an enlarged brief in opposition to the pending motion to dismiss. 

Plaintiffs contend that an enlargement is necessarybecause theywill be required to discuss the extensive

legislative history underlying the low carbon fuel standard at issue in this case, the lengthy regulatory

proceedings before the California Air Resources Board, and the applicable case law. For good cause

appearing, this Court GRANTS in part plaintiffs’ request and ORDERS as follows:

The 25-page limit for opposition to the pending motions to dismiss is ENLARGED to 40 pages. 

The plaintiffs in each of the above-titled actions may file an opposition up to and including 40 pages in

length. The Court grants this enlargement to allow the plaintiffs to address all of the issues raised by

the interested parties in this action.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: May 10, 2010 /s/ Lawrence J. O'Neill
