Text Order DENYING 7 Unopposed Motion for Leave to File Excess Pages. Movants seek to submit a filing with purported excessive pages because W.D. Tex. Civ. R. 7(e) limits responses to dispositive motions to twenty pages. That local rule, however, has no applicability to Movants' response to a petition for writ of habeas corpus. The response simply is not a response to a dispositive motion as contemplated by the local rules of this Court. Although the Court denies the motion, it hereby DIRECTS the Clerk of Court to file [7-2] Response to Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus Considering Recent Fifth Circuit Precedent. The Clerk of Court shall also file [7-3] Exhibit A and [7-4] Exhibit B as attachments to Movants' response. Entered by Judge Jason K. Pulliam. (This is a text-only entry generated by the court.
