week of June 21, 2010, in Pasadena, California. The date and time of oral

argument will be set soon, and counsel should inform this court of any potential

conflicts immediately. 

The parties are ordered to submit supplemental briefs addressing the

following questions:

1. Is “control” an element of this court’s agency test for personal

jurisdiction? If so, how much control is required? If our precedent is

unclear, how much control should be required?

2. If the panel concludes that an agency relationship exists, would an

exercise of general jurisdiction over defendants be reasonable in this

case? 

These supplemental briefs shall be no longer than ten pages or 2800 words,

and shall be submitted no later than 14 days after the entry of this order. Parties

who are registered for Appellate ECF must file the supplemental brief

electronically. Parties who are not registered Appellate ECF filers must file the

original supplemental brief plus seven paper copies.

The Petition for Rehearing En Banc is denied as moot without prejudice to

filing a new petition for rehearing en banc.
