Such joint statement of undisputed material facts and joint stipulated exhibits shall be filed by June 11, 2012.
Any response to such motions shall be filed by July 2, 2012, and any reply, if necessary, shall be filed by July 9, 2012. Any reply shall be limited to five (5) pages.

The plaintiffs shall have until August 16, 2012, to serve any rebuttal expert disclosures, if necessary.
8. All fact and expert discovery related to the "shared limits" issue shall be completed by September 7, 2012. That means that any written discovery related to that issue shall be served in sufficient time so that responses will be in hand by September 7, 2012.
9. The parties shall have until September 28, 2012, to file cross-motions on the "shared limits" issue. Any response shall be filed by October 19, 2012, and any reply, if necessary shall be filed by October 26, 2012. Any reply shall be limited to five (5) pages. No other filings in support of or in opposition to these cross-motions shall be made except with the express permission of the Honorable John T. Nixon.
10. To the extent that additional experts are necessary, the plaintiffs shall have until November 12, 2012, to serve Rule 26(a)(2) expert disclosures for any additional experts, unrelated to the shared limits issues.
11. The defendants shall have until December 7, 2012, to serve Rule 26(a)(2) expert disclosures for any additional experts unrelated to the shared limits issue. The plaintiffs shall have until December 14, 2012, to serve any rebuttal expert disclosures on such issues, if necessary.

No other filings in support of or in opposition to any dispositive motion shall be made except with Judge Nixon's express permission.
15. There shall be no stay of discovery before the September 7, 2012, deadline for completion of fact and expert discovery related to the issue of shared limits, before the January 4, 2013, deadline for the completion of all fact discovery related to other issues, or before the January 18, 2013, deadline for completion of expert discovery related to other issues despite the pendency of any dispositive motion.
16. Memoranda in support of or in opposition to any dispositive motion filed in this case shall not exceed 25 pages.
