RE: Clawson, et af. v. Mountain Coal Company, LLC, et af. United States District Court (D. Colo.) Civil Action No. 01-MK-2199 (JMR)
Dear JefT and Monique:

In followup to Jeff's correspondence of March 21,2003, please be advised that March 31, 2003, is the deadline imposed by my office for motions to compel (twenty-one days following the expert witness cutoff date). In that regard, it is not a court-imposed deadline, or one that is pursuant to the Rules. Nevertheless, in an effort to timely resolve this issue, I would like to receive the 2, 2003, if the information requested will be provided. defendants' response by no later than April I will be in trial from April 7, 2003, through May 7,2003, and would like to have any motions to compel filed prior to that time.
Also on this issue, please be advised that, although requested in the plaintiffs' Request for
Production No. 12, the plaintiffs have not received EEO-1 forms for Arch Coal, Inc. or Arch Western Resources, L.L.c. The request is for the years 1997 to the present. This letter is wTitten, pursuant

to Fed.R.Civ.P. 37, to request that the defendants supplement their responses to requests for production to include those documents. Please advise by April 2, 2003, if possible, whether the
defendants will be providing this information as welL.

I look forward to hearing from you regarding these issues.
Sincerely,

KILLIAN, GUTHRO & JENSEN, P.C.
