A prehearing conference took place today between the DEA Administrative Law Judge, our lead lawyer Julie Carpenter of Jenner and Block, and DEA’s lawyer. The Judge set the dates for the hearing as August 22-26, 2005, with two additional weeks if needed, those being September 26-30 and December 12-16. We have the burden of proof and have to go first. Supplemental pre-hearing statements are due July 26, with any new exhibits.
