In light of the court's November 19, 2025, order, Petitioner Zero Emission Transportation Association's (ZETA's) motion to file a deferred appendix is denied without prejudice to refiling, if necessary, once the abeyance is lifted and a briefing schedule enters in these matters.

November 19, 2025 Opinion or Order ORDER entered by Lara E. Montecalvo, Appellate Judge. This matter, which consists of four consolidated agency-review proceedings, is before the court on several motions and papers concerning intervention and potentially placing the matter in abeyance, either in part or in full. We have considered each of these filings and the requests set out therein. The filings are resolved as follows: 1) the pending motions to intervene are granted , and the moving parties may intervene on behalf of respondents as requested; this ruling is subject to revisitation by the ultimate merits panel; 2) the matter, in full, will be held in abeyance pending further order of court; the parties should file joint status reports at 30-day intervals, the first due 30 days from entry of this order, updating the court on the status of new rulemaking and any other developments relevant for purposes of this matter; 3) any request that the matter be expedited in part is denied ; and 4) the parties, including the intervenors, should be prepared to promptly and jointly propose a briefing schedule once the court has entered an order lifting abeyance; further directions will be provided in the eventual order lifting abeyance. Regarding the matter of abeyance, the court has considered carefully the argument(s) that the court should impose only a partial abeyance. Based on the specific arguments placed before the court and based on concerns of efficiency and case-manageability, we conclude that placing the full matter in abeyance is the most appropriate course at this juncture.
