Pursuant to Civil Local Rules 7-3(d) and 7-12, plaintiff Federal Trade Commission 

(“FTC”) and defendant AT&T Mobility LLC (“AT&T”) (collectively, the “Parties”) hereby 

respectfully request Court approval to submit limited additional briefing relevant to AT&T’s 

Motion to Dismiss (Dkt. #29). This request is occasioned by recent action by the Federal 

Communications Commission (“FCC”). Earlier today, the FCC issued an order reclassifying 

broadband internet access services – including the mobile data service at issue in this case – as 

common carriage subject to Title II of the Communications Act. See FCC Adopts Strong, 

Sustainable Rules to Protect the Open Internet, FCC press release, Feb. 26, 2015, available at

http://transition.fcc.gov/Daily_Releases/Daily_Business/2015/db0226/DOC-332260A1.pdf. 

Because AT&T’s motion relies on the common carrier exemption to Section 5 of the FTC Act, 

15 U.S.C. § 45, the parties believe that the Court would benefit from further limited briefing on 

what effect, if any, the FCC’s action should have on this matter. 

 Accordingly, the parties request the following additional briefing: 

1. A sur-reply, not to exceed ten pages, to be filed by the FTC on Tuesday, March 3, 

2015. 

2. A sur-sur-reply, not to exceed ten pages, to be filed by AT&T on Friday, March 6, 

2015. 

 Pursuant to Civil Local Rule 5-1(i), I hereby attest that I have obtained concurrence in the 

filing of this document from all other signatories to this document. 

 Respectfully submitted, 

Dated: Feb. 26, 2015 DAVID C. SHONKA
