Re: Ronald Cantor, et al. v. Ronald O. Perelman, etal.
Civil Action No. 97-586-KAJ
Dear Judge Jordan:
I write to respectfully request the entry ofthe enclosed proposed stipulated order
providing for simultaneous filing of pretrial briefs on December 15, 2006. The parties believe
that pretrial briefs will aid the Court in hearing the bench trial in the above captioned action and
therefore included a provision in Section XI(B) of the joint pretrial order tiled on August 4, 2006
(D.I. 486) for the parties to "simultaneously file and serve their pretrial briefs on September 22,
2006 at either 5:00 p.m. or a time agreed to by the parties," subject to the approval of the Court.
After the telephone conference on August 16, 2006, the Court issued an order moving the date of
the pretrial conference to November 30, 2006 and the start date of trial to January 2, 2007 (D.I.
488). In light of the scheduling change, the parties respectfully request that they be allowed to
simultaneously file and serve pretrial briefs on December 15, 2006.
Defendants’ counsel have reviewed and approved this letter, and cotmsel for both
parties have signed the enclosed proposed stipulated order.
We are, of course, available at the convenience of the Court.
Respectfully submitted,
/s/ Tyfarzy Geyer Lydon
