and briefing schedule on Defendants’ motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim.

If the Court determines that the motion to remand is suitable for resolution without oral

argument, it will so advise the parties in advance of the hearing date. If the parties wish to

modify this schedule, they may submit for the Court’s consideration a stipulation and proposed

order demonstrating good cause for any modification requested.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
