reply brief.
Parties are strongly encouraged to hand deliver their briefs to the Clerk’s office on the date due. Filing by mail could delay the processing of the brief. Additionally, parties are reminded that if filing by mail, they must use a class of mail that is at least as expeditious as first-class mail. See Fed.R.App.P. 25(a). All briefs and appendices must contain the date that the case is scheduled for oral argument at the top of the cover, or state that the case is being submitted without oral argument. See D.C. Cir. Rule 28(a)(8).
The Clerk is directed to transmit forthwith to the district court a certified copy of this order in lieu of formal mandate in Nos. 07-3052 and 07-3059 only. The Clerk is further directed to transmit a copy of this order to appellant in No. 07-3038 both by certified mail, return receipt requested, and by first class mail.
