IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO
Civil Action No. 11-cv-00200-PAB-MEH
JOE BROWN,
Plaintiff,
v.
JACK CANTRELL, Director of UNICOR, and
HARLEY LAPPIN, Director of the Bureau of Prisons,
Defendants.
_____________________________________________________________________________
ORDER FOR SUPPLEMENTAL BRIEFING
_____________________________________________________________________________
Michael E. Hegarty, United States Magistrate Judge.
Before the Court is Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss [docket #49], Plaintiff’s response to the
motion and a reply brief from the Defendants. The Court notes that neither party addresses the
Tenth Circuit’s opinion in Williams v. Meese, 926 F.2d 994 (10th Cir. 1991) and its progeny.
Because the opinion appears to be relevant to and, perhaps, binding on the issues raised in this
matter, the Court will order the parties to supplement their briefing by addressing Williams’ holding
and its application, if any, to Plaintiff’s claims.
Therefore, IT IS ORDERED that on or before February 1, 2012, the Plaintiff and
Defendants shall each file a supplemental brief, no longer than five pages, addressing only the issues
identified in this order.

Dated this 18th day of January, 2012, in Denver, Colorado.
BY THE COURT:

Michael E. Hegarty
United States Magistrate Judge
