Case No. 2:19-cv-00067-APG-GWF

This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff’s Motion for Leave to File Sur-reply (ECF Nos.
67, 68), filed on April 29, 2019.

14

Plaintiff requests leave to file a five page sur-reply to address new evidence introduced by

15

Defendant Experience Information Solutions, Inc. in its reply in support of its motion to stay and

16

for a protective order. ECF Nos. 65, 66. A party is permitted to file a sur-reply only by leave of

17

court and motions for leave to file a sur-reply are discouraged. See LR 7-2(b). The Court may

18

grant leave to file a sur-reply if new matters are raised for the first time in the reply to which a

19

party would otherwise be unable to respond. See United States v. Ormat Indus., Ltd, 2016 WL

20

1298119, at *6 (D. Nev. Apr. 1, 2016). The Court finds good cause to grant Plaintiff’s request.

Accordingly,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiff’s Motions for Leave to File Sur-reply (ECF
Nos. 67, 68) are granted.
Dated this 1st day of May, 2019.
