IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

DANIEL GRACE, et al.,

Plaintiffs,

 v.

ALASKA AIR GROUP, INC., et al.,

Defendant. /

No. C 16-05165 WHA

ORDER REQUESTING

SURREPLY AND

CONTINUING HEARING

Defendants object to reply evidence submitted in support of plaintiffs’ motion for a

preliminary injunction of the merger of two airlines. Among the objectionable reply

declarations is a report from plaintiffs’ expert providing, for the first time, sworn support for

plaintiffs’ HHI calculations, even though the analysis had been solicited and completed before

the filing of the complaint and without identifying the expert in Rule 26 disclosures. 

Defendants seek to strike the untimely and undisclosed reply evidence.

Rather than strike the untimely evidence, defendants may file a surreply by OCTOBER

12 AT NOON. The surreply and any supporting declarations shall be limited to direct rebuttal of

the evidence raised for the first time in plaintiffs’ reply declarations. Any extraneous material

will not be considered. The hearing on the motion for a preliminary injunction is hereby

CONTINUED to WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 19 AT 8:00 A.M.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: October 6, 2016.
