Case 2:12-cv-00578-RCJ-PAL Document 93

1

Filed 09/27/12 Page 2 of 3

On September 10, 2012, Defendant Sandoval, Defendant Glover, and Defendant-

2

Intervenor Coalition for the Protection of Marriage (collectively, “Defendants”) each filed a

3

separate motion for summary judgment against Plaintiffs. Dkt. 85 (16-page brief), 74 (30-page

4

brief), 72 (30-page brief). Plaintiffs’ opposition briefs to Defendants’ three motions are currently

5

due October 25, 2012. Dkt. 67. Under the local rule governing opposition briefs, LR 7-4,

6

Plaintiffs would ordinarily be entitled to file three separate briefs, each 30 pages in length (for a

7

total of 90 pages). Plaintiffs, however, wish to promote efficiency and economy for the Court by

8

filing one combined opposition brief of 45 pages, which is half the amount of pages they would

9

otherwise be allotted. Plaintiffs respectfully submit this motion seeking leave to file such a brief.

10

All parties have advised Plaintiffs’ counsel that they do not oppose Plaintiffs’ request to submit a

11

combined opposition brief of up to 45 pages, and counsel respectfully request that it be so

12

ordered.
