This is an appeal from a district court order denying a petition for writ relief and affirming the Secretary of State's decision to place respondent Ralph Nader's name on the November 2004 ballot as a presidential candidate. Presently before the court is appellants' motion to expedite this appeal.

Appellants shall have until 9:00 a.m. on Wednesday, September 08, 2004, to file and serve any supplement to the points and authorities that they previously submitted in support of their motion to expedite. These points and authorities shall constitute appellants' opening brief. Respondents shall have until 4:00 p.m. on Friday, September 10, 2004, to file and serve an answering brief. fn1[For this appeal, we suspend the provisions of NRAP 25(1)(a) which provide that a document is timely filed if, on or before its due date, it is (1) mailed to this court or (2) dispatched for delivery within three calendar days by a third-party commercial carrier.
