Sledge of the law firm of White and Steele, P.C., and Plaintiff, Eva Lyons, pursuant to the Court's Order dated July 13, 2005, and submits this Joint Status Report, as requested by this Court. This matter comes before the Court on an Order and Judgment from the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit which was filed on May 12, 2005.

In particular, it is Defendant's position that it will best serve the parties and the judicial economy to try any and all potential claims at the same time. This can only be done after Plaintiff has obtained her determination from the United States Supreme Court upon her Petition for Certiorari. Respectfully submitted this 27th day of July 2005.
