06/29/2001Order/ProceduralFiled Order. Order Resolving Motions. On February 6, 2001, respondents filed a 'Motion To Strike Appendix, Motion To Require Submission Of Joint Appendix And Revised Opening Brief, And To Reset Briefing Schedule.' We grant respondents' motion and direct the clerk of this court to strike the opening brief and appendix filed on November 30, 2000. Appellant shall have 30 days from the date of this order to file an opening brief and appendix. Failure to comply fully with this order in a timely manner may result in the imposition of sanctions. Respondents shall have 30 days from service of the opening brief and appendix to file and serve the answering brief. Appellant may then file a reply brief, if deemed necessary, within 30 days of service of the answering brief. On June 14, 2001, appellant filed a motion requesting this court to submit this appeal on the opening brief alone and to treat respondent's failure to file an answering brief as a confession of error. On June 18, 2001, respondents filed an opposition to appellant's motion. No good cause appearing, we deny appellant's June 14, 2001, motion. Included in respondents' June 18, 2001, opposition was a countermotion to strike appellant's appendix. On June 26, 2001, appellant filed an opposition to respondents' countermotion. Because we grant respondents' February 6, 2001, motion to strike the appendix, we deny respondents' countermotion as moot. 01-11027
