    ORDER

    On June 29, 2021, respondent Davidson County Election Commission filed a


    motion requesting that this Court assume jurisdiction over its pending appeal pursuant to
    Tennessee Code Annotated section 16-3-201(d) and Rule 48 of the Rules of the Tennessee
    Supreme Court. On July 6, 2021, petitioners Metropolitan Government of Nashville and
    Davidson County, Tennessee; John Cooper, in his official capacity as Mayor of the
    Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County, Tennessee; and Kevin
    Crumbo, in his official capacity as Finance Director of the Metropolitan Government of
    Nashville and Davidson County, Tennessee filed a response in opposition to the motion.
    On July 8, 2021, respondent filed a motion for leave to file a reply in support of its motion
    requesting that this Court assume jurisdiction, accompanied by the proposed reply. Upon
    due consideration, respondent’s motion for leave to file a reply is GRANTED.

    The Court has carefully considered the motion, the response, and the reply. Based
    upon the current totality of the circumstances, including the relevant timeline and the
    procedural posture of this case, the Court concludes that this case does not warrant the
    extraordinary action of the exercise of the Court’s authority to assume jurisdiction. As a
    result, the motion to assume jurisdiction is DENIED.

    PER CURIAM
