December 10, 2025 Opinion or Order Filing 218 DOCKET TEXT ORDER denying #212 Plaintiffs' Motion for Leave to File Excess Pages. Plaintiffs seek leave to file a 117-page consolidated response to the motions to dismiss ( #190 & #192 ). Where neither motion to dismiss is overlength, and responses are ordinarily limited to 25 pages or 7,750 words, see DUCivR 7-1(a)(4)(A)(i), Plaintiffs have not shown good cause to allow responsive briefing of this length. Additionally, they have not demonstrated a consolidated response is necessary, where the motions raise many distinct arguments and issues. But the court will allow more limited overlength responses, and Plaintiffs' response deadline is extended to allow them to comply with this order. Accordingly, the court ORDERS as follows: 1) Plaintiffs' motion #212 is denied, and the consolidated response at Doc. No. #211 is stricken.2) By December 19, 2025, Plaintiffs must file separate responses to the motions to dismiss. Each response may be up to 35 pages or 10,850 words. Signed by Magistrate Judge Daphne A. Oberg on 12/10/2025. No attached document. (med)

July 15, 2025 Opinion or Order Filing 53 DOCKET TEXT ORDER. Having carefully reviewed #42 Plaintiffs' Second Motion for Temporary Restraining Order and #43 Plaintiffs' Third Motion for Temporary Restraining Order, the court again finds that Plaintiffs have failed to justify an ex parte temporary restraining order for the same reasons detailed in #20 Memorandum Decision and Order. In short, the adequacy of a state forum for purposes of Younger depends on whether "state law clearly bars the interposition of the federal statutory and constitutional claims," not on whether the state forum has been solicitous of such claims. Winn v. Cook, 945 F.3d 1253, 1258 (10th Cir. 2019). To be sure, in addition to their multiple motions for temporary restraining orders, Plaintiffs have submitted a veritable avalanche of filings, some of which can be understood to argue or imply that "special circumstances" obviate the application of Younger in this case. But the court has not found sufficient evidence in these filings to substantiate Plaintiffs' apparent position on this issue, particularly in an ex parte posture without the benefit of adversarial briefing. As the Supreme Court has explained, the issuance of ex parte temporary restraining orders is subject to "stringent restrictions" because "our entire jurisprudence runs counter to the notion of court action taken before reasonable notice and an opportunity to be heard has been granted both sides of a dispute." Granny Goose Foods, Inc. v. Teamsters, 415 U.S. 423, 43839 (1974). Plaintiffs' motions are accordingly DENIED. The court will not entertain further motions or requests for temporary restraining orders pending a ruling on Plaintiffs' Motion for a Preliminary Injunction. SO ORDERED. No attached document.
