ADMINISTRATIVE LAW JUDGE’S RULING 
ALLOWING RESPONSES TO MOTION TO STRIKE

On May 19, 2000, San Diego Gas & Electric Company (SDG&E) and Southern California Gas Company (SoCalGas) filed a Motion to Strike the Phase 1 Testimony of the Solar Development Cooperative and to Limit Cross Examination to Phase 1 Issues.  In my ruling dated May 16, I indicated that responses to motions to strike testimony that were submitted on or before May 19 should be submitted in writing no later than May 26.  I will extend that date until May 30.  The subject party of the motion shall, and interested parties may, respond in writing no later than May 30.  Because hearings are scheduled to begin on May 31, it is essential that responses be served by e-mail on all parties.  In addition to providing me with a hard copy, parties should ensure that I receive the responses by electronic mail (mlc@cpuc.ca.gov) or by fax (415-703-1723) so that I receive all comments by 4 p.m. on the date they are filed.  
Therefore, IT IS RULED that: 
1.		As the party whose testimony is the subject of SDG&E’s and SoCalGas’ Motion to Strike, the Solar Development Cooperative shall, and interested parties may, file and serve responses to the Motion to Strike by May 30, 2000.
2.		Responses shall be provided to me by electronic mail (mlc@cpuc.ca.gov) or by fax (415-703-1723) by 4 p.m. on the same day that comments are filed.  Responses shall be served concurrently by e-mail on all parties.
Dated May 23, 2000, at San Francisco, California.
