Pursuant to these procedures, Plaintiffs served by overnight delivery their Second Quarterly Statement for 2010 on Defendants on August 17, 2010. Defendants responded on September 23, 2010. The parties completed their meet-and-confer process on October 6, 2010 as to number of hours and costs incurred, but not as to Plaintiffs' claim to 2010 hourly rates. 1
