I make this declaration in support of Proponents' Motion for Administrative Relief. 2. After closing arguments were held on June 16, 2010, Proponents requested Plaintiffs and Plaintiff-Intervenor promptly to return all copies of the trial video in their possession to the Court, but they denied the request. 3. A stipulation could not be reached in this matter because Plaintiffs and Plaintiff-Intervenor declined Proponents' request to return to the Court all copies of the trial video in their possession.
