1. Key takeaways
Rejection of submission
The court may, at its discretion, disregard not only unsolicited written submissions in addition to the regular written pleadings provided for in the RoP, but also the content of regular written pleadings that goes beyond the admissible content provided for in the RoP. This applies not only to new arguments or facts, but, for example in the context of a rejoinder, also to any submission that goes beyond the matters raised in the reply.
