ORDER

THIS MATTER comes before the Court on documents purporting to be
Notices of Appeal filed by the United States Department of the Treasury as
“substituted party.” (Doc. Nos. 96, 97).
This Court has not designated the Treasury Department as a substitute
party. Additionally, the documents reference “federal trustee” Duane L. Berry as a
class member in this litigation. The post marks on the envelopes indicate that the
purported Notices of Appeal were mailed from or near the town in Michigan to
which his settlement check was sent, rather than Washington, D.C. (Doc. No. 95 at
12-13; Doc. No. 12-13).
IT IS, THEREFORE, ORDERED that the United States Attorney shall file a
pleading within fourteen (14) days of the entry of this Order stating whether the
