Opinion
Civil Action 7:10-CV-122 (HL).
November 28, 2011.
ORDER
This case is before the Court on Plaintiff's Motion to Strike Defendants' Sur-Reply Letter Brief or, Alternatively, to File a Response to Defendants' Sur-Reply Letter Brief (Doc. 87). The Motion is granted, in part, and denied, in part.
On November 15, 2011, Defendants filed a motion for leave to file a sur-reply brief in response to Plaintiff's reply brief in support of his motion for summary judgment (Doc. 85). The Court denied the motion in a text order on November 16, 2011. Nevertheless, Defendants filed a letter (Doc. 86) on November 21, 2011, which in essence was a sur-reply to Plaintiff's reply brief.
Plaintiff has now requested that the Court either strike the letter or allow Plaintiff to file a response to the letter. The request to strike the letter is granted. The Court has all of the briefs and documents it will accept regarding Plaintiff's summary judgment motion. Plaintiff's Motion to Strike (Doc. 87) is granted, but the request for sanctions is denied at this time. SO ORDERED.
