Case No. 2:15-cv-01538-JCM-GWF
ORDER

13
This matter is before the Court on Defendants’ Motion to Strike (#18), filed on October 19,
14
2015.
15
Defendants move to strike Plaintiff’s Objection to Motion to Dismiss (#17). Plaintiff’s
16
Objection (#17) is an extension of his Response to the Motion to Dismiss (#7), and is essentially a
17
sur-reply. There is no provision in the Local Rules that provides for a sur-reply, and one may not be
18
filed without leave of the Court. See Bacon v. Reyes, 2015 WL 298694 at *3 (D. Nev. 2014).
19
Plaintiff did not seek leave of the Court before filing this sur-reply, and the Court will therefore
20
strike the Objection (#17). Accordingly,
21
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Defendants’ Motion to Strike (#18) is granted.
22
Plaintiff’s Objection to Motion to Dismiss (#17) is hereby stricken.
23
DATED this 13th day of November, 2015.
