ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFFS’

AND COUNTER-DEFENDANTS’

EX PARTE REQUEST FOR LEAVE

TO FILE NOTICE OF

ADDITIONAL AUTHORITY

[DOC. # 149]

Plaintiffs and counter-defendants TDY Holdings LLC and TDY Industries, Inc.

(“TDY”) have filed an ex parte request seeking leave to file a notice of additional authority.

See Doc. # 149. Specifically, TDY seeks to submit additional briefing concerning a newly

filed case entitled United States v. Saporito, ___ F.Supp.2d ___, No. 07C 3169, 2010 WL

489703 (N.D. Ill. Feb. 9, 2010). Doc. # 149 at 1. TDY wishes to submit such briefing

in an effort to supplement the prior briefing submitted in support of TDY’s motion for

summary judgment currently under submission with this Court. Id. at 1-2. 

The government opposes TDY’s request. See Doc. # 150. According to the

government, the newly filed case referenced by TDY is distinguishable from this case such

that the additional authority would provide nothing further in support of TDY’s motion.

Id. at 2-3. In any event, the government posits that “adequate ‘notice’” of the existence

of Saporito has already been given through the filing of the instant request, thus rendering

TDY’s request unnecessary. Id.

This Court agrees with the government. Since the Court is now aware of the

existence of this case, it can determine for itself the relevance and applicability of the case

to the issues and arguments presented in TDY’s motion for summary judgment, without

adding further briefing to the massive amount of information presently before this Court.

Accordingly, TDY’s ex parte request for leave to file notice of additional authority is

DENIED.
