T h e October 20, 2009 joint motion of all plaintiffs and all defendants to m o d ify the briefing schedule in order to coordinate so that the parties may join in a sin g le brief is construed as a stipulated motion for an extension of time to file co n so lid ated briefs pursuant to Ninth Circuit Rule 28-4, and so construed, is g r a n te d . The additional 1,400 word allowance, pursuant to Ninth Circuit Rule 28-4,is g r a n te d to those separately represented parties who choose to file a consolidated b r ie f . The memo, filed on September 15, 2009 in No. 09-16706, regarding p aym en t of docketing fees only references payment of fees in No. 09-16708 and w ere filed by appellants Claudia Mink, et al. Therefore, the docketing fee remains due for No 09-16706. The court's August 24, 2009 order directed the appellants in No. 09-16706 to pay the docketing fee by September 14, 2009. As of November 18, 2009, the co u rt docket reflects that the appellants in No. 09-16706 has not been paid and no req u est for appropriate relief has been requested. Therefore No. 09-16706 is dismissed for lack of prosecution under Ninth C ircu it Rule 42-1. A copy of this order shall act as and for the mandate of this co u rt for No. 09-16706 only.
