Note: Missing from the docket sheet, as a separate item, is “Plaintiffs’ Reply to Defendant United States’ Opposition to Plaintiffs’ Motion for Preliminary Injunction”. Because the Judge never granted the Plaintiffs’ Motion to submit additional evidence (12), the Clerk treats the Plaintiffs’ Reply Brief (legal argument which doubtless refers to these documents) as not part of the record in the case, even though the documents themselves are part of the record (weird), and even though the Judge quotes from the brief in his Memorandum Opinion (note 9), as do the defendants in their subsequent briefs. Not being part of the record in the case, the Reply Brief not available to the public; ie: it’s secret. Though the Clerk has her way of doing things in managing the legal record in the case, this secrecy from the public is an unwarranted consequence, and I’m hoping to get a photocopy of this brief, eventually. –CJHjr

Note: Missing from the Docket sheet, as a separate item, is “Plaintiffs’ Consolidated Opposition to Individual Federal Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss and Crossmotion to Strike Certification of Scope of Employment.” Because the Judge never granted the Plaintiff’s motion to submit additional documents (30), the Clerk treats the Plaintiffs’ Brief and Cross-Motion opposing the individual Defendants (U.S. Officers) (legal argument which doubtless refers to these documents) as not part of the record in the case, and thus not available to the public; ie: it’s secret, even though the documents themselves are part of the record (weird again) and the parties refer to the brief, and quote from it, in their subsequent briefs. This “ain’t right”, and I’m hoping to get a photocopy of it, eventually, though I guess I’ll have to file a Motion myself to get it. –CJHjr
