Decision on miscellaneous motion, McL, 1. The motion for an order prohibiting the intervenor OFIS from expanding or amending Constitutional Questions is dismissed, no such application having been placed before me. The only question which remains is whether the intervention can proceed upon the terms on which it was granted. Not having been pursuaded that the intervenor should be prevented from preceding in this fashion, it remains open to the Attorneys General to object to the intervenor's arguments on the basis of prejudice at the time of the hearing 2. The motion for an order confirming the filing of reply factums is dismissed. The matter was disposed of on June 21/95, and the order of that date stands. 3. The motion for an order allocating times is dismissed. This issue was settled by the order of June 21/95 and no change is to be made. Dismissed, no order as to costs |
