ORDER1

This matter comes before the Court on Defendant KTB Florida Sports Arena LLC's ("KTB") Motion to Dismiss, or in the alternative, Motion to Strike (Doc. 24) filed on November 14, 2017. Plaintiff Juan Carlos Gil ("Gil") filed a Response in Opposition (Doc. 27) on December 12, 2017. After reviewing the pleadings, the Court seeks additional briefing from KTB on this issue: whether its standing arguments also implicate the merits of Gil's cause of action.2 KTB should address its argument that there was no injury because Gil failed to inquire or use other effective methods of communication. Juan Carlos Gil will be given an opportunity to respond. Once the briefings are supplied, the Court will hold oral argument.

Accordingly, it is now

ORDERED:

(1) Defendant KTB Florida Sports Arena, LLC shall submit additional briefing, not exceeding five (5) pages in length, on the issues specified in this Order by January 26, 2018. (2) Plaintiff Juan Carlos Gil shall file a response to the additional briefing, not exceeding five (5) pages in length, by February 2, 2018. (3) Counsel shall appear in person for a hearing on Wednesday, February 21, 2018 at 9:30 a.m. The hearing will be held in Courtroom 5D of the United States Courthouse and Federal Building at 2110 First Street, Fort Myers, Florida 33901. The Clerk is directed to send out a notice of hearing under separate cover.

DONE and ORDERED.
