ORDER REGARDING LETTER FROM JAMES EDWARDS O/B/O SCIENTIFIC SPINAL PENSION PLAN
The appended letter and e-mail from James Edwards were received on July 7, 2010, and August 4, 2010, respectively. Counsel were copied on the letter but not the e-mail. The letter is phrased as an objection to the federal securities class settlement agreement. It states a request to be excluded from the settlement agreement but not the class. Such a request is not the same as a motion to opt-out of the class, because exclusion from a settlement agreement is governed by the terms of that agreement. Mr. Edwards' e-mail, however, requests exclusion from the class. Both requests are therefore construed as an opt-out motion. Class counsel included a response to Mr. Edward's letter in its memorandum in support of final approval of the federal securities class settlement agreement (Dkt. No. 838 at 23). Neither side received Mr. Edwards' e-mail, however, and defendants have not had an opportunity to comment at all. Counsel are directed to inform the Court whether they oppose the motion, by NOON ON OCTOBER 1, 2010. Additionally, if Mr.
