1 TO THE PARTIES AND THEIR ATTORNEYS OF RECORD:

2 PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that on January 15, 2010, at 8:30 a.m., or as soon thereafter as the

3 matter may be heard, before the Honorable Vaughn R. Walker, United States District Court for the

4 Northern District of California, 450 Golden Gate Avenue, San Francisco, California, Defendant-

5 Intervenors Proposition 8 Proponents Dennis Hollingsworth, Gail J. Knight, Martin F. Gutierrez,

6 and Mark A. Jansson, and Proposition 8 Campaign Committee ProtectMarriage.com – Yes on 8, a

7 Project of California Renewal, will move this Court for an order shortening the time to hear their

8 Motion to Exclude.

9 Defendant-Intervenors respectfully request an order shortening time on the Motion to

10 Exclude.

11 ARGUMENT

12 Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 6-3, Defendant-Intervenors respectfully request the Court to

13 shorten time on their Motion to Exclude Proposed Witness Ryan Kendall. Defendant-Intervenors

14 ask that their Motion to Exclude be considered on January 15, 2010, at 8:30 a.m., or as soon

15 thereafter as reasonably possible. Plaintiffs and Plaintiff-Intervenor have indicated that Mr. Kendall

16 will likely be called to testify on January 15, 2010; thus, time does not permit the usual briefing and

17 hearing schedule on the Motion to Exclude.

18 Prior to December 2009, Plaintiff-Intervenor had never disclosed Mr. Kendall as an

19 individual who might have information relevant to this case. And after Mr. Kendall’s name was

20 disclosed as a potential witness in this case, Plaintiff-Intervenor did not produce him for a

21 deposition until January 7, 2010, a mere two business days before trial. The last-minute nature of

22 Mr. Kendall’s involvement in this case necessitates shortening the time to hear the accompanying

23 request to exclude his testimony.

24 Defendant-Intervenors have notified the parties about this Motion to Shorten Time and have

25 sought their consent. All the other defendants and defendant-intervenors have indicated that they

26 do not oppose this Motion. Plaintiff-Intervenor, however, does not consent to shorten the time to

27 hear the Motion to Exclude. And as of the filing of this Motion, counsel for Plaintiffs had yet to

28 respond to Defendant-Intervenors’ request.

1 I, James A. Campbell, attorney for Defendant-Intervenors Proposition 8 Proponents Dennis

2 Hollingsworth, Gail J. Knight, Martin F. Gutierrez, Mark A. Jansson, and Proposition 8 Campaign

3 Committee ProtectMarriage.com – Yes on 8, a Project of California Renewal, have personal

4 knowledge of the facts in this declaration, and if called as a witness, I could and would competently

5 testify to these facts under oath:

6 1) Defendant-Intervenors Proposition 8 Proponents and ProtectMarriage.com’s Motion to

7 Exclude Ryan Kendall was filed on January 14, 2010.

8 2) Defendant-Intervenors seek the Court’s leave for a hearing on their Motion to Exclude

9 on January 15, 2010, at 8:30 a.m., or as soon thereafter as reasonably possible.

10 3) Plaintiffs and Plaintiff-Intervenor have indicated that Mr. Kendall will likely be called to

11 testify on January 15, 2010; thus, time does not permit the usual briefing and hearing schedule on

12 the Motion to Exclude.

13 4) I contacted via email counsel for all parties on January 14, 2010, and requested consent

14 to shorten time on the Motion to Exclude.

15 5) Counsel for the Alameda County Clerk-Recorder indicated that he does not oppose this

16 Motion.

17 6) Counsel for the Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk indicated that he

18 does not oppose this Motion.

19 7) Counsel for Hak-Shing William Tam indicated that he does not oppose this Motion.

20 8) Counsel for the Administrative Defendants indicated that they do not oppose this

21 Motion.

22 9) Counsel for the Attorney General indicated that he does not oppose this Motion.

23 10) Counsel for Plaintiff-Intervenor indicated that the City and County of San Francisco

24 does not consent to this Motion.

25 11) As of the time of filing this motion, I had yet to receive a response from counsel for

26 Plaintiffs.

27 12) Under this Court’s standard briefing schedule, the Motion to Exclude would be set for

28 hearing following the testimony of Mr. Kendall in this case; thus, the harm suffered by not granting

1 this Motion to Shorten Time would be irreparable. This fact weighs heavily in favor of expediting

2 the Court’s consideration of this Motion.

3 13) Any prior time modifications in this case do not directly bear on the Court’s

4 consideration of this Motion.

5 14) It does not appear that the Motion to Shorten Time will have any effect on the schedule

6 for this case.

7 I declare under the penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States that the foregoing

8 is true and correct.
