ORDER
Without objection, the motion [doc.#127] of plaintiff G&K Services, Co. (G&K) for a

By Order entered June 7, 2011 [doc.#125], the Court denied defendants’ renewed motion

motion in limine [doc.#112], deferred ruling on G&K’s motion in limine [doc.#113], denied

With respect to G&K’s motion in limine [doc.#113], the Court, given that this matter is

address any of the matters set forth therein. Rather, the Court will address the matters set forth

directs that defendants, their counsel, and all witnesses called on their behalf not to mention or
bring before the jury, either directly or indirectly, upon voir dire examination, opening statement,
interrogation of witnesses, introduction of any evidence, argument, objections before the jury,
reading of any portion of the pleadings, or by any other means or in any other manner inform the
jury, or bring to the jury’s attention, any of the matters set forth in G&K’s motion in limine
[doc.#113] unless and until such matters have been first called to the attention of the Court as to
the admissibility and relevance of any such matters.

IT IS SO ORDERED this 28th day of June 2011.
