FURTHER ORDERED, on the court’s own motion, that the parties submit
proposed formats for the briefing of these cases within 30 days of the date of this order.
The parties are strongly urged to submit a joint proposal and are reminded that the
court looks with extreme disfavor on repetitious submissions and will, where
appropriate, require a joint brief of aligned parties with total words not to exceed the
standard allotment for a single brief. Whether the parties are aligned or have disparate
interests, they must provide detailed justifications for any request to file separate briefs
or to exceed in the aggregate the standard word allotment. Requests to exceed the
standard word allotment must specify the word allotment necessary for each issue.
