STATEMENT OF RELEVANT FACTS
On September 29, 2017, Defendants filed their currently-operative First Amended Answers. See
ECF Nos. 13, 14, and 15. Plaintiffs sought from Defendants the withdrawal or amendment of the
affirmative defenses alleged therein, pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(f). A party is obligated to file a Fed.
R. Civ. P. 12(f) motion “within 21 days after being served with the pleading” to be challenged. See Fed.
R. Civ. P. 12(f)(2). Accordingly, by regular operation of the Rule, Plaintiffs must file Fed. R. Civ. P.
12(f) motions to strike the affirmative defenses from Defendants’ pleadings by October 20, 2017.
Pursuant to the Court’s Order, ECF No. 3-1 at 3:13-22, the parties’ counsel have engaged in
extensive meet and confer efforts, including written correspondences and a telephonic conference,
concerning the affirmative defenses alleged in Defendants’ currently-operative First Amended Answers.
Those efforts remain ongoing, as of this date.
