I have revised and am emailing to you and Robin a copy of the revised Molla=
nd Declaration that I have sent back to Michael this afternoon wherein he e=
xplains what happened yesterday regarding the tentative ruling and asks for=
oral argument. When I spoke to Michael late this afternoon about the decla=
ration I learned some additional information which is contrary to one of ou=
r assumptions, and suggests it will be harder to expect the court to go for=
ward with argument on Monday. Through this afternoon(when I had discussed t=
his separately with Richard and Robin today), we have been operating on the=
assumption that only telephonic notice to opposing counsel of the intent t=
o argue was required to have oral argument in SFO court and that notice to =
the court itself was not required. If so, the court would have this one on =
its Monday calendar. I asked Michael again how the Court would know what ma=
tters would actually be on the oral argument calendar and was told today th=
at the telephonic instructions from the court which accompany the tentative=
ruling tell you before listening to the recorded ruling that apparently Y=
OU HAVE TO PUSH A CERTAIN TELEPHONE NUMBER BUTTON AT THE END OF THE ORAL RU=
LING IF THE MATTER IS TO REMAIN ON CALENDAR FOR ORAL ARGUMENT. That was not=
done by the person who first called and listened to the ruling for Michael=
. When someone called back and attempted to do so the response was "invalid=
" or something to that effect. Presumably that was because it was sometime =
after the 4:30 deadline. This would suggest that we are not even on the cal=
endar (without a request for oral argument)as we had hoped. I still will be=
there to argue, or at least argue for a hearing date. I wanted Bob to know=
of this new info in case it affects his decision on coming out here. Call =
me on my cell 619-985-9792 any time if anyone has questions. I will be emai=
ling the draft replies for Sacramento tomorrow.
