For purposes of litigation, the claims in No. 98-2444 will be divided into nine groups 5 as set forth in Appendix A and the claims in No.00-3706 will be divided into nine groups as set forth 6 in Appendix B. The groups of claims will be briefed and presented to the Court for decision in the 7 order indicated, beginning with group 1. Claims in the same numbered group in No. 98-2444 and No. 8 00-3706 will be presented to the Court for decision at approximately the same time, so the Court can 9 consider them together. 10 2. With respect to claims in group 1 in No. 98-2444, petitioner will file a motion for 11 summary judgment, motion for judgment on the pleadings, brief on the merits, or other appropriate 12 document within 180 days after issuance of the Court's forthcoming scheduling order. With respect 13 to the claims in group 1 in No. 00-3706, petitioner will file a similar document within 14 days after 14 filing the motion or brief in No. 98-2444. 15 3. Respondent's responsive brief on group 1 in each case will be due 60 days after peti- 16 tioner's motion or brief is filed. Petitioner's reply on group 1 in each case will be due within 30 days 17 after respondent's responsive brief is filed. The claims in group 1 will then be ripe for decision by the 18 Court, with or without oral argument as the Court prefers. 19 4. The same schedule will then be followed for the claims in group 2, with petitioner's 20 motion or opening brief in No. 98-2444 due 180 days after the later of his two replies on group 1 claims 21 is filed. Petitioner's motion or opening brief on group 2 claims in No. 00-3706 will be due 14 days 22 later, and so forth. 23 24 5. The same schedule will then be followed for the claims in group 3. 6.

This will include a schedule for filing motions for evidentiary hearing and responses thereto, 27 and a schedule for litigating questions of cause and prejudice with respect to claims the Court has 28 previously found to be procedurally defaulted.
