Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss Complaint, Motion to Strike, and Motion to Sever 

to December 3, 2007 at 9:00 a.m. The Motions referenced above are currently

attend the hearings. All counsel agree that having the hearings on December 3, 

2007 at 9:00 a.m. will better accommodate the schedules of counsel and better 

allow for attending counsel to travel to and attend the hearings. 

A proposed order is being filed concurrently herewith.
