May 22, 2020 Opinion or Order Filing 17 PAPERLESS ORDER granting Defendant Virginia Stucky Frazier's Expedited Motion to Exceed Page Requirement. (DE #11 ). This case was originally filed in state court. Prior to removal, Defendant filed a motion to dismiss which remained pending when this cased was removed. (Id.). In the present Motion, Defendant indicates that it will refile the motion with an attached memorandum of law. Defendant seeks leave to file a memorandum that exceeds the page limitation by five-pages. Plaintiff Rachel Hicks opposes the Motion for several reasons. (DE #14 ). Most of these reasons are procedural reasons, and in the interest of resolving the forthcoming motion to dismiss on its merits, I reject those arguments. Plaintiff also states that she has apparently already prepared a response to the motion, which she intended to file shortly. (Id. at 5). In her reply, Defendant states that she intends to modify the memorandum to incorporate the applicable federal standards. (DE #16 ). I will grant the Motion, as it will enable Defendant to present her motion to dismiss in the most coherent manner and utilizing the proper law. Defendant shall separately refile her Motion and incorporated memorandum of law by May 26, 2020 and Plaintiff shall respond by June 9, 2020. Signed by Judge Donald M. Middlebrooks on 5/22/2020. (jdr)
