Date Filed Document Text
April 22, 2021 Opinion or Order Notation Order: This civil action is before the Court on Defendant's objection to and motion to strike all evidence attached to Plaintiff's reply in support of the motion for preliminary injunction (Doc. #26 ). The Court finds that the information filed in support of the reply is presented to rebut the positions argued by Defendant in opposition, see Local Rule. 7.2(d), and/or may be at least considered when determining the weight of evidence at this preliminary proceeding. See, e.g., Univ. of Tex. v. Camenisch, 451 U.S. 390, 395 ("a preliminary injunction is customarily granted on the basis of procedures that are less formal and evidence that is less complete than in a trial on the merits"). Accordingly, the motion to strike (Doc. #26 ) is DENIED. The Court will provide a more detailed analysis of this decision in its order on the preliminary injunction. The motion for preliminary injunction is now ripe for decision and the Court will not entertain further filings related to that motion. IT IS SO ORDERED. Signed by Judge Timothy S. Black on 4/22/2021. (rrs)
