ORDER SETTING HEARING

On May 28, 2008, after the close of evidence in this case,

Plaintiffs submitted a letter to the Court in which they brought

to the Court's attention a recently discovered email that had been

written by a VA staff member. Docket No. 231. Defendants

responded with a letter of their own. Docket No. 232. 

Although Plaintiffs' request to reopen the case is unusual,

the email raises potentially serious questions that may warrant

further attention. The Court therefore ORDERS the parties to

appear on Tuesday, June 10, at 10:00 a.m. in Courtroom # 1. At

that time, the Court will hear argument solely on the issue of the

Case 3:07-cv-03758-SC Document 233 Filed 06/05/08 Page 1 of 2
