By an Order [Doc. # 11] entered on October 11, 2013, I set this matter for a scheduling

plaintiffs’ motion for preliminary injunction; the circuit court has denied the plaintiffs’ motion
for injunction pending appeal; and Justice Sotomayor has enjoined defendants “from enforcing
against [defendants] that contraceptive coverage requirements imposed by the Patient Protection
and Affordable Care Act . . . and related regulations pending the receipt of a response and further
order of the undersigned or of the Court.” Little Sisters of the Poor v. Sebelius. --S. Ct. --, 2013

The plaintiffs shall file a status report on or before the earlier of the following:
