TRONOX LLC'SRESPONSE IN OPPOSITION TO
COMPLAINANTS/COUNTER-COMPLAINANT RESPONDENTS' MOTION TO
RECONSIDER THE BOARD'S JANUARY 5. 2006 ORDER
Respondent/Counter-Complaint Complainant Tronox LLC ("Tronox"),' in
opposition to the Motion to Reconsider, filed by Complainants/Counter-Complainant
Respondents Grand Pier Center LLC and American International Specialty Lines Insurance
Co., as subrogee of Grand Pier Center LLC, (collectively, "Grand Pier"), states as
follows :
Grand Pier's motion for reconsideration fails to identify any new evidence
'
Tronox LLC was formerly known as Kerr-McGee Chemical Company LLC . A
Notice of Name Change was filed with the Board on October 11, 2005
.
or change in the law . See Ill. Admin. Code tit. 35, ยง 101.902 ("In ruling upon a motion
for reconsideration, the Board will consider factors including new evidence, or a change in
the law, to conclude that the Board's decision was in error. ")
.
Rather, Grand Pier is
making an argument that it ought to have made in the underlying motions if it wished the
Board to consider it. The matters addressed in the Board's Order have been sufficiently
argued in the parties' extensive briefing on the underlying motions and the Order of the
Board is sound
.
Tronox respectfully requests that the Board deny Grand Pier's motion to
reconsider the Board's Order of January 5, 2006
.
Respectfully submitted,
TRONOX LLC
