The opening paragraph infact in the "Preliminary Procedural and EVIDENTIARY issues" , which is the first section - kind of like the 10th line.. <!--emo&:blink:--><img src='style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='blink.gif' /><!--endemo-->
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->The Application of Ambedkar Center for Justice and Peace, et al., for leave to file brief as Amici Curiae in support of respondentâs opposition to petition for writ of mandate, filed August 16, 2006, is <span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'>denied</span>. The parties filing the application have not demonstrated that their proposed briefing will assist the Court in deciding the matter, particularly in light of the fact that the issues in this case have been briefed thoroughly and competently by counsel for the parties. Moreover, the proposed amicus brief is accompanied by several declarations and a Request for Judicial Notice, through which the parties submitting the application seek to place additional evidence before the Court. No authority has been cited that permits a party appearing as an amicus curiae to submit evidence or otherwise act as a party to the case. The evidence accompanying the application therefore has not been considered by the Court for any purpose. <!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
