2.

I have personal knowledge of the matters set forth herein and, if called on to

testify, I could and would competently testify thereto. 3. On behalf of Miles McPherson, I filed a Motion to Quash Subpoena and For

Protective Order today in this action. 4. In accordance with Local Rule 7-2(a) a 35 day notice is required which would put

the hearing on his Motion to Quash and For Protective Order at March 2nd, allowing for weekends and the Presidents' Day holidays. Since the trial is scheduled to start on today, Monday January 11th and Mr. McPherson could be called as a witness as early as Wednesday January 13th it would be beneficial to all parties to have Mr. McPherson's Motion to Quash Subpoena and For Protective Order heard as soon as possible. 5. Therefore it is requested that a hearing on the subject motion be held prior to Mr.

McPherson being called to testify or as soon as reasonably possible. 6. It is also requested that the time for briefing be shortened to expedite the court's

consideration of this matter. 7. Counsel has not previously requested an expedited hearing, but he has asked

counsel for Plaintiffs when Mr. McPherson will be called to testify. Counsel for Plaintiffs could give counsel no answer, other than not in the first two days of the trial. I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed on January 8, 2010, at Valley Springs, California, County of Calaveras. /S/ Brian R. Chavez-Ochoa Brian R. Chavez-Ochoa CHAVEZ-OCHOA LAW OFFICES, INC.
