an extension of time, up to and including September 18, 2006, for Payne to respond to 

plaintiffs’ complaint. 

Various motions to dismiss or strike made by other defendants are now currently 

pending and calendared for hearing on September 5, 2006, at 1:30 p.m. 

Another defendant has been granted an extension of time to respond to the complaint 

until September 18, 2006. 

In the interest of avoiding unnecessary expense and in order that the pending motions 

may be heard prior to Payne’s response, counsel for plaintiffs and Payne have agreed Payne 

need not respond to the complaint until September 18, 2006.
