ON MOTION

5 WOLFCHILD V. US

ORDER

Julia DuMarce et al. move to reform the caption.
Sheldon Peters Wolfchild, et al. (Wo1dchild), oppose the
motion. The United States does not object to the motion
as long as new parties are not being added to the appeal.
Elizabeth T. Walker, Esq. moves to correct the record or
for leave to join the appeal filed by Wolfchild. Cross-
Appellants and Plaintiffs-Cross Appellants also move
without opposition for a 130-day extension of time, until
August 18, 2012, to file their initial briefs.

The official caption will be revised to reflect that Vic-
toria Robertson-Vadnais is added as Plaintiff-Cross
Appellant, and John Does 1-433 are recharacterized as
Plaintiffs-Cross Appellants. The other requested changes
to the caption, including listing parties as Cross-
Appellants that were not included in the Notices of Ap-
pea1, are denied.

z Accordingly,
§ IT Is ORDERED THAT:

(1) The motion to reform the caption is granted to the
extent that the revised official caption is reflected above.

(2) The motion for an extension of time is granted to
the extent that the plaintiffs-cross appellants’ initial
briefs are due August 20, 2012.

(3) All other pending motions are denied.
