The Court requests and urges counsel for the United States most familiar with this case

17

to attend the hearing on respondents’ motion to dismiss, and to bring with them persons from

18

the Bureau of Indian Affairs and Department of the Interior most familiar with the events

19

underlying this matter. The Court will consider the position advanced in the United States’

20

amicus brief in deciding the motion. The Court further requests that counsel for the United

21

States be prepared to discuss the parties’ responses to its amicus brief. Counsel for the United

22

States should also meet in person with counsel for both sides prior to the hearing and attempt to

23

articulate a precise recommended procedure for obtaining reconsideration by the Council as to

24

all named plaintiffs. The Court needs the candor and assistance of counsel for both sides and

25

the United States.
