The parties shall meet and confer as to the time needed for the hearing, and shall advise the Court by Tuesday, May 1, 2007, if this time is not sufficient. Also, if the parties have any objection to the procedure for the hearing outlined by the Court, briefs shall be filed on this issue by Tuesday, May 1, 2007.
