IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA
NATIONAL VETERANS LEGAL
SERVICES PROGRAM, et al.,
Plaintiffs,
v.
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Defendant.
Case No. 16-745-ESH
PLAINTIFFS’ SUR-REPLY IN OPPOSITION TO MOTION TO DISMISS
The government’s reply makes two new points that warrant a short response. First, the
government complains (at 6-7) that we have not responded to its statement of facts. See Local Civ.
R. 7(h)(1). Accordingly, we are filing the attached statement, making clear that we do not dispute
the government’s six factual assertions—all of them legally irrelevant. Second, the government
incorrectly contends (at 5) that we “have not alleged a statutory remedy that supports an illegal
ex[]action claim.” We allege precisely that in our complaint, and the government offers no
coherent response. See Compl. (Dkt. 1) at 14 ¶¶ 33-34; see also Class Cert Mot. (Dkt. 8) at 9-11.
Respectfully submitted,
