Corey Chrivia v. Katlin Reed, et al.

Summary

The court grants defendants’ motion to strike plaintiff Corey Chrivia’s sur-reply to their motion for summary judgment. The court concludes that Chrivia neither sought leave to file the sur-reply nor showed good cause, and orders the sur-reply stricken.

Holdings

1. A non-moving party has no right to file a sur-reply; a party seeking to file one must obtain leave of court and demonstrate good cause.
2. The defendants' motion to strike was granted, and the plaintiff's sur-reply was stricken.

Questions Presented

1. Whether the plaintiff's sur-reply should be stricken when he filed it without leave, failed to show good cause, and did not address new arguments or evidence in the opposing party's reply.
