DECLARATION OF SCOTT A. KRONLAND IN OPPOSITION TO MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION OF THE ORDER SETTING A BRIEFING SCHEDULE ON PLAINTIFFS' MOTION FOR A PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION Scott A. Kronland declares: 1. case. 2. I exchanged messages yesterday and today with the attorney for the government I am a member of the bar of this Court and one of the attorneys for plaintiffs in this

defendants, Daniel Bensing, about the availability of the administrative record for the DHS Final Rule. Mr. Bensing informed me that DHS has not yet compiled the administrative record, or an index to the record, and does not know yet when they will be available. I am concerned that if the Court compresses the briefing schedule there will not be sufficient time for plaintiffs to review the administrative record before reply papers are due and for the Court to review the administrative record before the preliminary injunction hearing. 3. I also was recently contacted by Robert P. Charrow, an attorney at Greenberg Traurig

LLP who represents some major business groups. Mr. Charrow said his clients intend to seek leave to intervene as plaintiffs in this case and join in the request for a preliminary injunction against the Final Rule and that Mr. Charrow had contacted the government to determine whether there will be any opposition to an intervention motion. (Plaintiffs would not oppose the motion.) The need to weigh the arguments of business groups at the preliminary injunction hearing would be another reason the existing schedule should not be compressed. I declare under penalty of perjury that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed on September 6, 2007, in San Francisco, California
