FURTHER PLANNING, THE PARTIES TO PROVIDE ASSISTANCE,

AND HEARINGS TO GO FORWARD

Pursuant to the Orders and Opinions of the United 

States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit,

IT IS ORDERED:

1. The panel previously appointed by the District

develop a final plan of desegregation pursuant to the guide­
lines promulgated by the Court of Appeals in Part VIII of 

its Opinion of December 8, 1972.
2. The parties, their agents, employees, successors 

and all others having actual notice of this Order shall 
cooperate fully with the panel in their assigned mission 
including, but not limited to, the provision of data and 
full and part-time assistance as requested by the panel.

The State defendants shall provide support, accreditation, 
funds and otherwise take all actions necessary to insure



that local officials and employees cooperate fully with 

the panel. All reasonable costs incurred by the panel 
shall be borne by the State defendants; provided, however, 
that staff assistance or other services provided by any 
school district, its employees or agents, shall be without 

charge and the costs thereof shall be borne by such school 

district.
3. Within 20 days of the entry of this Order, all 

parties may file responses, or additional responses, with 

the Court and the Panel, to the reports previously submitted 

by the panel and the State Superintendent pursuant to the 

Court*s Order of June 14, 1972.
4. Within 75 days after the entry of this Order, 

the panel shall file a plan of desegregation, including, 
but not limited to, reports on actual pupil assignments 
and all aspects of transportation required.

5. Twenty-five days after the filing of the reports 

required herein, the parties shall file complete legal
and practical objections and any alternatives to such 
plans, supporting briefs, and memoranda detailing proofs 

to be offered at any hearing.
6. Fifteen days thereafter, hearings on all 

relevant issues raised shall commence.
