6

Plaintiff’s reply/opposition to cross motion

All briefs carry a 25 page limit. The parties ask the Court to permit the first two filings
(Plaintiff’s opening brief and Defendants’ opposition/cross motion) to have a 30 page limit. Good

10

cause exists for the additional five pages of briefing for each filing due to the fact intensive nature

11
