J. LEON HOLMES, District Judge.
The Court takes note that the plaintiffs have requested a three-judge panel in the present action. The relevant statute provides that the district judge must immediately notify the chief judge of the circuit unless the district judge determines that the plaintiffs are not entitled to a three-judge panel. 28 U.S.C. § 2284; see also Bone Shirt v. Hazeltine, 444 F.Supp.2d 992 (D.S.D. 2005), aff'd, 461 F.3d 1011 (8th Cir. 2006). The Court therefore orders the parties to submit briefs on the issue of whether the plaintiffs are entitled to a three-judge panel. The plaintiffs' brief must be filed no later than 5:00 p.m. on January 31, 2012. The defendants' brief, if they oppose a three-judge panel, must be filed by 5:00 p.m. on February 3, 2012. The Clerk of Court is directed to send a copy of this Order to the Honorable Dustin McDaniel, Attorney General for the State of Arkansas, by CM/ECF and by facsimile.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
