DEFENDANT E&A SOUTHEAST LIMITED PARTNERSHIP’S REPLY IN SUPPORT OF ITS MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT
COMES NOW, Defendant E&A Southeast Limited Partnership (“E&A”), by and through its attorneys, and respectfully submits this reply in support of its Motion for Summary Judgment. As set forth in E&A’s motion for summary judgment [Doc. 267] and memorandum in support [Doc. 268], E&A is entitled to summary judgment because there is no cause of action stemming from the issuance of the LOMR; because Plaintiff failed to bring any claims against Defendant E&A within the applicable statute of limitations; because the Kroger building is not in a floodway; because Plaintiff cannot show that the Kroger building caused any damage to the Kmart store; and because the flood of May 2010 was an “Act of God.” Plaintiff’s reply attempts to construct facts in order to avoid summary judgment. However, this attempt lacks merit, offers new allegations which are untimely, and misconstrues facts in evidence. As such, Defendant E&A will only address the issues that warrant clarification in this reply. Applicable Law Defendant E&A is entitled to summary judgment as to all claims against it pursuant to this Court’s prior rulings and Mississippi law. 1
