ORDER
In preparing for the upcoming hearing, the Court has noted that the

State's response to statement of facts, Document No. 4713, and the Charter
Schools' response, Document No. 4710, are not in the form expected by the
Court. It would help the Court if these responding statements repeated each
fact alleged by LRSD IJ oshua and then stated the response -like responses to
interrogatories. This is what the Court was contemplating when it spoke
about "repetition of material facts alleged by LRSD and Joshua[]" in
describing the responding statements in the briefing schedule. Document No.

4608, at 9. The Court was not as clear as it should have been on this point of

form. And the Court understands that some counsel sought guidance from
the Court's staff on the due date for these papers, and were told repetition
was not essential.
The Court would nonetheless appreciate a substituted response to
statement of facts from the State, and one from the Charter Schools, in
interrogatory-response form by 23 March 2012. This will speed the Court's
understanding of the facts. The Court requests LRSD to e-mail the State and
the Charter Schools a Word or Wordperfect version of LRSD/Joshua's
statement of undisputed material facts, Document No.4706, by 21 March 2012.
The Court appreciates these parties' cooperation and extra effort on this score.
So Ordered.
