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.
