16
have filed any brief in opposition to Defendants’ motion by January 23, 2013. See N.D. Cal. Civ.
17
L.R. 7-3. The court has received no such opposition.

The court ORDERS Plaintiffs to respond by February 14, 2013 and explain their failure to
19
respond to the motion. In addition, Plaintiffs must simultaneously (1) submit their opposition to the
