Learning Resources, Inc., et al. v. Donald J. Trump, President of the United States, et al.
Whether the Supreme Court should grant a word-limit extension for filing a consolidated reply brief in an expedited case
in the petition for a writ of certiorari in No. 25-250. The government also understands that the private respondents and state respondents in No. 25-250 intend to file separate briefs on the merits. Accordingly, the government’s consolidated reply brief will have to address three separate response briefs, with an additional jurisdictional issue, on a highly expedited schedule. The government thus respectfully requests leave to file a consolidated reply brief on the merits in excess of the 6,000-word limit in Rule 33.1(g) (vii), not to exceed 9,000 words. Justices of the Court often grant leave to file merits briefs in excess of the word limits in analogous circumstances. E.g., Fuld v. Palestine Liberation Org., No. 24A795 (Feb. 21, 2025); FCC v. Consumers’ Research, No. 24A754 (Jan. 24, 2025); Chiafalo v. Washington, No. 19A894 (Feb. 14, 2020), Trump v. Mazars USA, LLP, No. 19A773 (Jan. 13, 2020). Respectfully submitted. D.
