30 and February 27 Motions to dismiss, and finds that the motions should be consolidated in

the interests of efficient use of judicial resources. The court also finds the court’s need to

manage its workload will be best served if hearing on Defendants’ motions to dismiss are

continued to the date requested by Plaintiff; that is until April 9, 2007, one week after the

date currently set for consideration of Defendants February 27 Motion to Dismiss.

THEREFORE, for the reasons stated above, the court hereby ORDERS that the

hearing dates currently scheduled on March 12, 2007, for Defendants’ January 30 Motion to

Dismiss, and April 2, 2007, for Defendants February 27 Motion to Dismiss, are hereby

VACATED, and no party shall appear at those times. Hearing on Defendants’ January 30

and February 27 Motions to Dismiss is hereby CONTINUED to April 9, 2007, at 1:30 p.m. in

courtroom 2.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
