COCKRUM et al v. DONALD J. TRUMP FOR PRESIDENT, INC. et al

Filing 49

RESPONSE re 46 MOTION for Leave to File Surreply filed by ROGER STONE. (Buschel, Robert)

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA

ROY COCKRUM, ET AL.,
Plaintiffs,
v.

Case No. 1:17-cv-1370-ESH

DONALD J. TRUMP FOR PRESIDENT, INC.,
ROGER STONE,
Defendants.

DEFENDANT ROGER STONE’S OPPOSITION TO PLAINTIFFS’ MOTION FOR
LEAVE TO FILE SURREPLY

Defendant Roger Stone opposes Plaintiffs motion for leave to file a surreply. (ECF No.
46-1). Stone adopts Defendant Donald J. Trump for President, Inc.’s opposition to Plaintiffs’
motion filed at (ECF No. 47).
Stone wishes to add that Plaintiffs also had the benefit of advocating amici at the
pleadings stages of this case in addition to agreement to add excess page numbers to their
opposition to the respective motions to dismiss. Because Plaintiffs had a full opportunity to brief
the issues in the motions to dismiss, Plaintiffs’ request for a surreply should be denied.
