Wilson & DRW Investments, LLC, No. 13-7884 (AT/KF) Dear Judge Torres: Pursuant to Rule III.A(ii) of the Court’s Individual Practices in Civil Cases (“Individual Practices”), plaintiff U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“Commission”) respectfully opposes prospective amici curiae’s (“amici”)1 request for leave to file a brief in support of defendants Donald R. Wilson and DRW Investments, LLC’s (together, “defendants”) summary judgment motion and in opposition to the CFTC’s motion for summary judgment (“amici letter”) (ECF No. 125).2 Amici’s belated request to file what is, effectively, a sur-reply in opposition to plaintiff’s motion for partial summary judgment, and an additional reply brief in support of defendants’ summary judgment motion, should not be allowed by the Court. As discussed below, nothing in amici’s letter justifies its tardiness or its reiteration of defendants’ legal arguments. Therefore, the Commission respectfully requests that the Court deny amici’s request for leave. 1 Amici include CME Group, Inc. (“CME”), Commodity Markets Council (“CMC”), Futures Industry Association, Inc. (“FIA”), Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. (“ICE”), and Managed Funds Association (“MFA”).
