Re: Pretrial Order Exhibit List and Numbering
Dear Robinson and Doug:
There are several exhibits we need copies of as soon as possible, as well as other exhibits we
need to see to verify we are talking about the same map or document. In addition, even after
removing the duplications you have got too many maps to fit within the 100 range of numbers.
Because we want to start numbering and copying our exhibits we would propose the following new
allocation of numbers:
1-99
100-299
300-399
400-499
500-599
Deposition Exhibits
Stipulated Maps and Data
Plaintiffs’ Exhibits
Defendants’ Exhibits
Defendant-Intervenors’ Exhibits
This numbering should work even if several groups of maps end up moving from the stipulated
exhibits to plaintiffs’ exhibits. Intervenors agree with this proposal. We would like a response on
the numbering issue today if possible.

This list was put together rather hastily, so there may be other exhibits for which we need
copies. In addition, at some point we probably would like to verify all the exhibits, especially maps,
to assure we have exact copies. It is likely that defendant-intervenors will need copies of all of your
exhibits, but you can work that out with them.
Sincerely,
ie Bh
