Case No. 10-2388 , Thomas More Law Center, et al v. , et al Re: Originating Case No. : 10-11156

Dear Counsel,

The briefing schedule for this case is listed below. The briefs must be filed electronically with the Clerk's office no later than these dates. If the appellant's principal brief is filed late, the case is at risk of being dismissed for want of prosecution.

For most appeals, the Court will access directly the electronic record in the district court. Include, in an addendum in the principal brief, a designation of relevant district court documents, identifying each document by record entry number and a succinct description.

However, if any relevant documents, such as the complaint or indictment, are not available electronically, the parties must file an electronic appendix with the briefs. To determine if this appeal requires an appendix and how to prepare it, read the latest version of the Sixth Circuit Rules at www.ca6.uscourts.gov, in particular Rules 28 and 30.

Appellant's Principal Brief Filed electronically by December 15, 2010 and Appendix (if required by 6th Cir. R. 30(a))

Case: 10-2388 Document: 006110780166 Filed: 11/04/2010 Page: 2

Appellee's Principal Brief Filed electronically by January 14, 2011 and Appendix (if required by 6th Cir. R. 30(a)) and (c)(2))

Appellant's Reply Brief Filed electronically 14 days after

(Optional Brief) the appellee's brief. See Fed. R. App. P. 26(c)

A party desiring oral argument must include a statement in the brief setting forth the reason(s) why oral argument should be heard. See 6th Cir. R. 34(a). If the docket entry for your brief indicates that you have requested oral argument but the statement itself is missing, you will be directed to file a corrected brief.

In scheduling appeals for oral argument, the court will do what it can to avoid any dates which counsel have called to its attention as presenting a conflict. If you have any such dates, you should address a letter to the Clerk advising of the conflicted dates.

Sincerely yours,

s/Mary C. Patterson Case Manager
