In the interest of giving the Tenant a fair opportunity to respond, the Commission will grant leave to file a reply to the Housing Providers’ briefing of its issue on cross-appeal. We do not think the Tenant will require an extended period to respond to this, and we are not inclined to reschedule the hearing of this already long-delayed appeal. Accordingly, the tenant’s motion for leave to file a reply is GRANTED, and such reply shall be due no later than 11:59 pm Eastern Standard Time (per the Commission’s prior scheduling order), November 9, 2023.
