Defendants hereby respond to the Court’s order concerning amicus briefs, ECF No. 83.
Before the filing deadline for amicus filings supporting Plaintiffs, Defendants informed counsel
for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugee and the States that Defendants consent to
amicus briefs if the brief is filed timely and is one-half the length of the parties’ briefs. Counsel
for amici did not inform Defendants that counsel planned to file longer amicus briefs. Having now
seen those amicus filings, Defendants consent to their filing.
Respectfully submitted,
