With respect to the preemption argument under Section 301, the Court requests that both
17
sides explain whether or not the collective bargaining agreements submitted to the Court may be
18
consulted in deciding the Rule 12 motion. The normal rule is that matters outside the complaint
19
may not be consulted (with certain exceptions). Plaintiffs have made no objection on these
20
grounds to defendant’s reliance upon the various collective bargaining agreements. The purpose
21
of the instant request is to confirm that plaintiffs make no procedural objection to the Court’s
22
consideration of the collective bargaining agreements.

Both sides shall respond in five pages or less (double spaced, no footnotes) by NOON ON
NOVEMBER 26, 2014. No replies.
