The Court has advised the parties that, although the above briefing schedule has been set, it

still expects the parties to further meet and confer to see if they can reach agreement on the discovery

disputes raised in the motions. The parties have also been advised that, even after briefing, the Court

may still order a further meet and confer. Such a meet and confer would take place on June 26,

2006, at the U.S. District Court courthouse, and the participation of lead trial counsel would be

required.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: June 13, 2006
