On May 2, 2012, Plaintiffs filed a letter brief regarding a pending discovery dispute. Dkt. No.
61. On May 3, 2012, Defendants filed a letter brief regarding the same pending discovery dispute.
Dkt. No. 62. The Plaintiffs’ letter indicates that Defendants would not agree to meet and confer in
person to resolve the discovery dispute and Defendants would not agree to jointly file the letter brief.

required.
