CASE NO. 07-CV-400-GKF-FHM

OPINION AND ORDER In response to Plaintiffs' Motion for (1) Scheduling Conference to Set Deadlines for Compliance with Preliminary Injunction Pending Appeal and (2) Order Requiring Return of Funds Withheld by Defendants [Dkt. 212] the Court ordered Defendants to file a summary report describing in reasonable detail what actions Defendants had taken to comply with the preliminary injunction. [Dkt. 223]. Defendants filed the

summary status report [Dkt. 232] and Plaintiffs have filed a response [Dkt. 236]. Plaintiffs' response essentially states that while it appears Defendants are now working reasonably diligently to comply with the preliminary injunction, continued Court supervision is needed.

The Court concludes that a further summary report from Defendants and a response by Plaintiffs is appropriate. IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Defendants file a second summary status report by March 5, 2009. Plaintiffs shall file a response by March 12, 2009. Signed this 5th day of February, 2009.
