Real party in interest Doe 9 has filed a motion for leave to file an unredacted NRAP 26.1 disclosure statement under seal, a motion for leave to file a redacted disclosure statement in its answer, and a motion for leave to file an answer in excess of the type-volume limitation.

The clerk shall file the unredacted answer received on November 4, 2024, under seal. The unopposed amended motion of real party in interest Doe 1 for leave to file an unredacted NRAP 26.1 disclosure statement under seal is granted. A redacted version was filed on October 21, 2024. The clerk shall file the unredacted version, received on October 24, 2024, under seal. Real party in interest Doe 3's motion for leave to file an unredacted NRAP 26.1 disclosure statement under seal and to file a redacted disclosure statement in its answer is granted. A redacted statement is included in the answer filed on November 1, 2024. The clerk shall file the unredacted statement received on November 8, 2024, under seal. On September 20, 2024, this court entered an order directing real parties in interest, by October 18, 2024, to file and serve an answer. To date, Does 4 through 8 have not filed their answer or otherwise communicated with this court. Doe 2 untimely filed a joinder to the answers of Does 3 and 9 on November 4, 2024. This filing was rejected by the clerk because it was not timely filed, not accompanied by a motion for an extension of time, and lacked sufficient room for this court's file-stamp. Doe 2 re-filed its joinder, but that filing was rejected because it was untimely and still not accompanied by a motion for an extension of time. To date, Doe 2 has not re-filed its joinder and a motion for an extension of time, or otherwise communicated with this court. Doe 2 and Does 4 through 8 shall each have 7 days from the date of this order to file and serve their answers and/or joinders to the answers of other real parties in interest. (SC) | | 24-43351
