It is hereby ORDERED that the motion is dismissed as unnecessary insofar as it seeks to dismiss the cross appeal on the ground that the cross appeal is dismissed pursuant to this Court's order of August 21, 2017, and
It is further ORDERED that the motion is denied insofar as it seeks to strike the portion of Joshua Hines' brief that addresses the cross appeal on the ground that the brief has been accepted by the Court as a respondent's brief only, and
