Order DENYING 1716 Emergency Motion for Stay Pending Appellate Review. Because Morrico has indicated it will seek a stay with the appellate court, in order to allow for an orderly emergency motion practice before the Ninth Circuit, the court direc ts the Receiver to delay the awarding of the new invitation for bid until April 28, 2017. If a stay is not ordered by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals by said date, the Receiver is directed to proceed with the procurement process and awarding of co ntract so as not to further delay obtaining the cab forward refuse trucks that are critical to the safety needs of GSWA and the public, as well as the operations of GSWA and its ability to expeditiously achieve compliance with the Consent Decree.

Order re 1177 Motion to Stay and for Further Relief. The court grants the Lieutenant Governor's request to fully substitute the Attorney General with the Cabot Mantanona law firm based on a breakdown in the attorney-client relationship. How ever, after weighing the competing factors, the court finds that a stay of these proceedings is unwarranted. The court finds the following motions to be moot: 1184 Motion to Shorten Time on Motion to Stay and for Further Relief; 1191 Emergency M otion for an Order Granting a Temporary Stay of Procurement While the Government's Motion to Stay and for Further Relief is Pending; 1199 Motion for Clarification of Order Setting Expedited Briefing; and 1234 Request for an Order on Motion to Stay and for Further Relief.

Order re 1155 Motion for Clarification of July 1, 2013 Order. No clarification is necessary since the court has repeatedly held that the Receiver is not the client of the Attorney General. In the present case, the Motion for Clarification does n ot present the court with enough facts for the court to conclude that the attorney-client privilege is applicable to shield the disclosure of the information sought by the Governor's Office. Accordingly, the court believes that further briefing is needed on this issue. Attorney General's supplemental brief due by 9/27/2013. Responses to supplemental brief due by 10/11/2013. Attorney General's reply due by 10/18/2013. Signed by Chief Judge Frances M. Tydingco-Gatewood on 9/18/2013. (fad, )

Order. IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that GEPA shall use its best attempts to secure funding for a technical consultant to work only on the Layon project to ensure the permitting process complies with the court approved deadlines.
