order Order on Motion for Leave to File Amicus Brief Wed 12/10 11:43 AM
MINUTE ORDER granting156 Motion for Leave to File Amicus Brief. On December 5, 2025, a group of former Federal Reserve Officials moved to submit an amicus brief in support of plaintiffs' pending motion to clarify148 . Pursuant to Local Civil Rule 7(o)(2), the Court established a date by which any objection would be due, and the defendants have filed a timely response161 . The motion will be granted in the Court's discretion notwithstanding the defendants' suggestion that it was untimely under internal Department of Justice policy, which does not govern this Court. Defendants point to the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure, and a non-binding ruling by a court in the Southern District of Mississippi which observed, "[w]hile no rule specifically governs amicus status in district court proceedings, courts typically apply Rule 29 of the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure." In the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, though, there is a specific rule that governs amicus status, and it includes no time limit; instead, it says, "[t]he amicus brief shall be filed within such time as the Court may allow." LCvR 7(o)(3). Moreover, defendants were not prejudiced by any supposed delay in the filing of the proposed amicus brief; the Court gave them time to review it and inform the Court of their position, and the timing was the only grounds cited for why it should not be received. Since the matters addressed in the proposed brief are directly relevant to the disposition of the motion, and the amici bring specialized knowledge and experience to the question to be decided, the motion is GRANTED. The Clerk of the Court is directed to file the amicus brief [156-1] on the docket. Signed by Judge Amy Berman Jackson on 12/10/2025. (lcem)
