well-taken, a vastly different pretrial statement, proposed findings of fact, trial brief, exhibit

set, and set of pretrial documents shall be required. If these documents must be submitted

by December 1, 2005, plaintiffs shall incur unnecessary costs in the event their motions are

granted on December 7, 2005, as plaintiffs’ counsel will otherwise spend several hours on

11/29 and 11/30 to comply with the existing deadline, and then have to re-do the documents

and briefs to reflect the disposition of the December 7, 2005 matters.

This ex parte application is respectfully submitted without oral argument for the

Court’s decision at the Court’s earliest opportunity, and may appropriately be considered a

supplement to the ex parte application filed November 21, 2005.
