RULING DENYING DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO FILE A SUR-REPLY AND RELIEF
DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO JOIN SUR-REPLY OF DEFENDANT
Defendant moves this Court to file a sur-reply to the Receiver’s report [Doc. # 1203]
of June 2019 and Relief Defendants move to join him. (Def.’s Mot. to File Sur-Reply [Doc. #
1209]; Relief Def.’s Mot. to Join Sur-Reply [Doc. # 1212].) Leave to file a sur-reply is at the
sound discretion of the Court and this Court’s chamber preferences clearly state that it does
not typically permit them. As neither motion by either Defendant or Relief Defendants
articulates persuasive grounds upon which the Court should grant their requests, both
motions [Doc. # 1209; Doc. # 1212] are DENIED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
