The Court sets the following schedule for briefing and argument directed to that issue: Deadline to file motion for fees and costs: February 12, 2024; Deadline to file response to motion: February 20, 2024; Deadline to file reply in support of motion: February 26, 2024; Hearing on motion March 11, 2024, at 9:00 a.m. Alternatively, the parties may elect to resolve the issue by stipulation, whichwould advance the just, speedy, and inexpensive determination of this matter by obviating the need for further expenditure of resources in federal court.
