61 ORDER granting 52 Motion for Leave to File surreply. The surreply was considered by the court.

The court believes it would be helpful for the parties to re-submit their preliminary report and discovery plan since the motions at issue have now been resolved. The parties are directed to submit their preliminary report and discovery plan no later than 6/30/2009. Signed by Judge Charles A. Pannell, Jr on 06/19/2009. (rvb) (Entered: 06/19/2009)
