                        RELATED TO A MEETING COMPETITION DEFENSE


           Plaintiff United States hereby moves in limine to exclude evidence or argument for a

competition" defense pursuant to FED. R. EVID. 402.  Plaintiff believes any such argument or

is irrelevant because there is no judicial authority for the defense.  Moreover, the defense would

undermine the goals of the Sherman Act.  Furthermore, even if the Court were to consider making

new law, American cannot prevail on a "meeting competition" defense because it failed to act in good

faith.

           In support of this Motion, Plaintiff files its accompanying Memorandum.



        WHEREFORE, the United States respectfully requests that the Court grant this Motion and

enter an order precluding American from offering argument or evidence in support of a "meeting

competition" defense.

                   COURT'S APRIL 14, 2000, REVISED SCHEDULING ORDER
    
           The United States hereby requests that the Court clarify or correct the deadlines contained
    
    in the Court's April 14, 2000, Revised Scheduling Order ("Revised Order") that specify the time
    
    by which parties must file responses and replies to dispositive motions.  With respect to the
    
    deadline for responses to dispositive motions, the United States has reason to believe that the
    
    deadline specified in the Revised Order may have been inadvertent. With respect to the deadline
    
    for replies to dispositive motions, counsel for Defendants (collectively "American") has stated that
    
    American will not oppose Plaintiff's request for correction of the deadline for responses to
    
    dispositive motions if the request includes a corresponding request for additional time for replies
    
    to dispositive motions.  Finally, Plaintiff and American agree that two other minor matters should
    
    be clarified in the Revised Scheduling Order.
