Consent Motion to Withdraw Plaintiffs Jury Demand


Plaintiff, The National Organization for Marriage, Inc., (NOM), by counsel, hereby submits this Motion to Withdraw Plaintiffs Jury Demand, and as grounds therefore, state as follows: 1. On October 3, 2013, NOM filed its Verified Complaint (Dkt. #1), in which NOM alleged that Defendant United States of America, Internal Revenue Service (the Government) violated 26 U.S.C. 6103 and is therefore liable to NOM for damages pursuant to 26 U.S.C. 7431. NOM demanded a jury on all issues so triable. 2. NOM no longer seeks a jury trial on any of its claims, and therefore, with the consent of the Government, NOM hereby withdraws its jury demand pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 38(d). WHEREFORE, NOM respectfully request that this Court grant this Motion to Withdraw Plaintiff NOMs Jury Demand and order that the jury demand be withdrawn.
