This Court orders defendant Donald C. Winter to file a reply to plaintiff Ronald L. Porter’s

19

opposition filed on March 18, 2013. (Doc. 88). The brief shall address Mr. Porter’s argument that

20

review under the Administrative Procedures Act does not apply, pursuant to 5 U.S.C. § 704, because Mr.

21

Porter has an adequate judicial remedy by pursuing attorney’s fees under Title VII. (Doc. 88-1).

22

Defendant Winter may also address any further issues he deems relevant. The reply brief is due within

23

seven (7) days of electronic service of this order. The brief shall not exceed ten (10) pages.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
