United States of America,

Defendants.

UNITED STATES’ MOTION FOR 

LEAVE TO FILE EXCESS PAGES IN 

SUPPORT OF ITS RESPONSE IN

permission to file excess pages (not to exceed 33 pages) in support of its Response to 

Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss with Prejudice.

Although Local Rule of Civil Procedure 7.2(e), as incorporated by Local Rule of 

Criminal Procedure 47.1, provides that motions and responses ordinarily should not exceed 

17 pages in length, the United States respectfully requests permission to file excess pages 

here. Defendants’ motion is 29 pages in length, raises numerous issues, and contains 18 

exhibits totaling over 1000 pages. Moreover, many of the issues raised require additional 

pages to provide pertinent factual background. The United States respectfully requests 

permission to exceed the page limit so that it can thoroughly and completely respond to 

Defendants’ motion. 

Respectfully submitted this 17th day of November, 2021.
