 ORDER RE JOINT HEARING

The undersigned have carefully considered the parties’ responses to the May 29, 2007 Order

to Show Cause why the pending motions “to convene a three judge panel to limit prison population”

should not be heard jointly. We recognize that the cases are factually and procedurally distinct in

certain respects and fully intend to respect the individuality of each case. Given, however, that there

are significant overlapping factual and legal issues, we conclude that the interests of judicial

economy weigh in favor of a joint hearing in this matter.

The undersigned are also in receipt of the Receiver’s Request for Permission to File

Supplemental Overcrowding Report. 

Accordingly, and good cause appearing, it is HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The Receiver shall file his supplemental report (limited strictly to new information and its

impact on the Receiver’s ability to fulfill his duties), no later than June 11, 2007.

2. Any response to the Receiver’s supplemental report shall be filed no later than June 18,

2007.
