2. An Order granting a Temporary Restraining Order was signed by the Court on June 16, 2006. In that Order, the Court set the hearing on Plaintiffs' request for a preliminary injunction on June 27, 2006. 3. Due to scheduling issues, the proposed June 30 date for the preliminary injunction hearing would be far more convenient for Plaintiffs' counsel. 4. Counsel for defendants, Attorney General Chares C. Foti and District Attorney Doug Moreau, have been contacted and do not object to the requested continuance of the hearing date. Further, counsel for defendants do not object to the continuance of the temporary restraining order through June 30, 2006. 5. WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs Entertainment Software Association and Entertainment Merchants Association respectfully request that the Court continue the hearing on Plaintiffs' request for preliminary injunction from Tuesday, June 27, 2006 to Friday, June 30, 2006.
