1 language.
2 MR. RUSKIN: Except you didn't grant them leave.
3 You said ask for leave for whatever you want to file.
4 THE COURT: They asked for leave, and I don't
5 know the exact wording I used, but I thought what I had
6 said was that you are entitled to do whatever you think
7 is in the best interest of your clients.
8 MR. RAY: Thank you, and we have done that today.
9 THE COURT: And you have done that.
10 MR. RUSKIN: Our position is that at this point
11 that motion would be premature in light of the fact
12 that we are going to be asking the appellate court
13 for-- the appellate court is going to be reviewing,
14 potentially remanding, in which case that motion is
15 moot.
16 MR. RAY: Well, there's case support, your Honor,
17 for the fact that this is a collateral issue.
18 THE COURT: Let's get to that motion after we've
19 resolved this. So you're objecting to the 304(A)
20 language being included in it?
21 MR. RUSKIN: No. What I'm just, I guess,
22 thinking out loud here, 304(A) doesn't provide if
23 finality to the order. If there is some part of the
24 order that is final and some part that isn't, whether

1 today?
2 THE COURT: I think I would like to have a
3 separate order simply amending that so that it's clear
4 what we've done on that and then as far as the
5 continuation on this that would be a separate order.
6 Okay?
7 MR. RAY: Thank you.
8 MR. RUSKIN: And it's nunc pro tunc back to July
9 28th?
10 MR. RAY: That impacts the filing of our motion.
11 It would be effective today.
12 THE COURT: I don't see how that affects you.
13 MR. RUSKIN: It doesn't really other than if we
14 run up against a deadline, it's important to know what
15 date the clock starts to run.
16 THE COURT: I think it would start today.
17 MR. RUSKIN: Fair enough.
18 THE COURT: Thank you. Anything else?
19 MS. WETHEKAM: No, your Honor. Thank you, very
20 much.
