PLAINTIFFS’ CONSENTED MOTION FOR LEAVE TO FILE CORRECTED BRIEF 

Pursuant to Local Rules 7.1 and 15.1, and with Defendants’ consent, Plaintiffs hereby 

seek leave to file the attached corrected Brief Opposing Transfer. On October 10, 2022, Plaintiffs 

timely filed their Brief Opposing Transfer (ECF No. 33). After filing, Plaintiffs caught an error: 

in four places they inadvertently referred to “Middle District of Texas” instead of “Middle 

District of Florida” (on pp. i and 11). This mistake is corrected in the attached corrected brief, 

which is otherwise identical to the original brief. Defendants consent to this motion for leave. 

WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs respectfully request that the Court grant them leave to file the 

attached corrected Brief Opposing Transfer.
