Having read and considered the Objections, the Court rules as follows: 1. To the extent the Union Defendants seek to strike a portion of plaintiffs' Response on the ground such portion improperly exceeds the scope of the Court's June 3, 2009 order, the Objections are OVERRULED for the reason that plaintiffs, prior to filing their Response, did not have an opportunity to address the Union Defendants' argument pertaining to the content of the Memorandum of Understanding. Accordingly, the Court will not strike any portion of the Response. 2. To the extent the Union Defendants seek leave to file a reply to the Response, the Court finds it appropriate to afford the Union Defendants such opportunity, as set forth v. COUNTY OF ALAMEDA, et al., Defendants / DON DUNCAN, et al., Plaintiffs, No. C-08-5486 MMC ORDER RE: DEFENDANTS' OBJECTION TO PLAINTIFFS' RESPONSE TO DEFENDANTS' SUPPLEMENTAL BRIEF; CONTINUING HEARING ON DEFENDANTS' MOTION TO DISMISS; CONTINUING CASE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE United States District Court IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA
