MATTHEW F. LEITMAN UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE.
Now before the Court is a motion by Defendant Janet Yellen for entry of an order barring Plaintiff from making claims at trial that are not pled in the Complaint and from offering evidence or argument at trial about claims that are not pled in the Complaint. The Court concludes that it may resolve the motion without oral argument. See Local Rule 7.1(f)(2). The motion is GRANTED for the reasons stated in the motion, which the Court finds persuasive. Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiff shall not make claims at trial that are not pled in the Complaint and shall not offer evidence or argument at trial about claims that are not pled in the Complaint.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
I hereby certify that a copy of the foregoing document was served upon the parties and/or counsel of record on August 6, 2024, by electronic means and/or ordinary mail.
