ON MOTION ORDER Sanofi-Aventis U.S. LLC, et al. move for a 14-day ex- tension of time, until February 3, 2012, to file their re- sponse brief. The appellants oppose and move for "panel assignment and to set oral argument." Pursuant to Fed. Cir. IOP #3, paragraph 1, "the clerk's office attempts to assign the appeal to the previous panel, to a panel including at least two members of the previous panel (if one of those members was the authoring judge), or to a panel that contains the auth0ring judge, if such a panel is otherwise constituted and available on a subsequent argument calendar." The motion for "panel assign1nent" is denied. The motion to "set oral argument" is also denied because, inter alia, the appellants did not signiEcantly expedite the filing of their opening brief. Upon consideration thereof IT IS ORDERED THATZ (1) The motion for an extension of time is granted Further extensions should not be anticipated (2) The other pending motions are denied.
