However, it appearing to the court that exceptional and meritorious reasons exist which require a trial as soon as possible of the issues here presented for an equitable disposition thereof, it is ordered that the case be referred to the Chief Judge of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York for such preference as he may see fit. See Calendar Rule 10(e) of the Calendar Rules for the Southern District of New York.
