UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ESTATE OF ARIEL TORRES,

Plaintiff,

v.

CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF 

CORRECTIONS AND REHABILITATION 

et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 1:24-cv-00731-KES-SAB

ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR LEAVE 

TO FILE SURREPLY AND 

DISREGARDING SURREPLY

(ECF Nos. 42, 43, 44)

Before the Court is Plaintiff’s motion for leave to file a surreply relating to Defendants’ 

motion to dismiss. (ECF No. 33.) The Local Rules of the Eastern District of California provide 

for a motion, an opposition, and a reply. L.R. 230(l). Neither the Local Rules nor the Federal 

Rules provide the right to file a surreply, and the Court did not request one. Further, Plaintiff 

offers no persuasive reason for the Court to allow for a sur-reply in this matter. Therefore, the 

motion is DENIED. (ECF No. 43.) The Court HEREBY DISREGARDS the October 29, 2024 

surreply, which was filed prior to the motion. (ECF No. 42.) This renders Defendants’ motion 

to strike as MOOT. (ECF No. 44.) 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: October 31, 2024
