According to Local Rule 7.3 of the Southern District of Alabama, "[a]ny party may
request oral argument on any motion. However, the court may in its discretion rule on any
motion without oral argument." Reeves requests oral argument on the defendant's motion to
dismiss. However, the parties have provided sufficient information for the Court to decide the
motion to dismiss and therefore oral argument is not necessary.
