MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

This matter is before the court on two motions filed by plaintiffs seeking leave to amend their response (Dkt. 105) to defendant's motion for summary judgment. In each case, the motion to amend seeks to provide additional case citations as grounds for denying summary judgment.

D.Kan.R. 7.1 governs the means by which parties may bring supplemental authorities to the attention of the court. "If pertinent and significant authorities come to a party's attention after the party's final brief has been filed," the Rule provides that the proper course is not to seek leave to amend but to "advise the court clerk by letter filed on the CM/ECF system, with a copy to all other parties, setting forth the citations."

Accordingly, the plaintiffs' motions to amend (Dkt. 111, 115) are denied. Plaintiffs may submit a notice compliant with Rule 7.1, which provides specific guidance as to content, and Pinnacle may file a response within five days.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
