Filed & Entered: 09/10/2009 Ex Parte Application for Order re Discovery Matter
http://www.scribd.com/doc/19633565/03118746941
...the part of the order beginning with "except" looks to me to be an invitation for Orly to immediately petition the Court for discovery regarding the original best evidence HI BC vital records and the two complimentary Kenya BCs from 1961 and 1964. Orly would clearly have grounds to establish the validity of those documents to “counter the grounds set forth (by Obama’s team) in said motion to dismiss”:
“IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that all discovery herein, and proceedings related thereto, be stayed pending the resolution by this Court fo Defendants Motion to Dismiss, not set for hearing on October 5, 2009, except for any discovery as to which Plaintiffs can demonstrate, to the satisfaction of this Court, that they need to counter the grounds set forth in said Motion to Dismiss.”
So an order that starts out sounding like a stay of all discovery actually is an order permitting any discovery that Orly can persuade the Court that she needs to defend against the Motion to Dismiss!
Docket entries (in part):

What does the entry "Terminated" (9/16) mean in relation to the Ex Parte Application (9/10)? Seems like the Application was Granted...so when then "Terminated?"
