On December 28, 2023, Appellee filed a motion to seal Intervenor and Appellant’s opening brief for the same reasons. No response was filed to either motion.

Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the motion to seal Intervenor and Appellant’s opening brief is GRANTED. The Clerk is directed to file the brief under seal.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the motion to strike Intervenor and Appellant’s opening brief will be taken under advisement after the case has been sent to the Court for consideration.
