FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

PEOPLE OF THE STATES OF

CALIFORNIA, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

 v.

 UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF

AGRICULTURE, et al.,

Defendants.

 /

No. C 05-03508 JSW

ORDER SETTING HEARING ON

PLAINTIFFS’ REQUEST FOR A

TEMPORARY RESTRAINING

ORDER

This matter comes before the Court upon consideration of the Plaintiffs’ request for a

temporary restraining order (“TRO”). The Court ORDERS that this matter shall be set for a

hearing on Friday, July 7, 2006, at 9:00 a.m. 

Plaintiffs seek a TRO to enjoin Defendants and Defendant-Intervenor from logging or

allowing any logging in the inventoried roadless area that is part of the Mike’s Gulch timber sale

in southern Oregon pending the resolution of a pending motion for preliminary injunction. 

Magistrate Judge Elizabeth D. Laporte is the judge assigned to this matter. The request for a

temporary restraining order has come before the undersigned as General Duty Judge while

Judge Laporte is unavailable. Judge Laporte will be available on July 20, 2006. Thus, the only

issue before the undersigned is whether to issue a narrow TRO to preserve the status quo until

Judge Laporte is available to adjudicate the merits of the pending motions. The parties should

be prepared to address at the hearing on the TRO what exigencies exist warranting the grant or

denial of a TRO until July 21, 2006 to preserve the status quo.
