We ore writing this letter to seek permission to f l an over-length reply memoranthm ie

Pursuant to your hdividual Prild7ceR l s unless "prior permission has been ue, granted.. .reply memoranda are limited t 10 pages" (Rule 2(c)). On January 13, counsel for o plaintiffs wrote to the Court asking for permission to file a consoliited memomdurn of law of up to 50 pages as a reply in support of their own motion for summary judgmrm and as an opposition ro defendanfs' motions for summaryjudgment/judgment on the pleadings. This mquest was granted and plaintiffs filed a 50 page memorandum.

In order to adequately respond, we respecrfully request that the Court approve the filing of a reply manormdurn by Myriad and the Directors of up to 25 pages. We will, of wune, rry to do with less, but feel at this t m that the additional requested pages may be necessary. ie Counsel for plaintiff3 has w m t e d to this request.
