Kid--It’s a fairly common practice to trim down to fighting weight before a trial or rulings. This keeps the focus on the major claims of the plaintiff/petitioner and removes the distractions that the defendant/respondents may concentrate on. Don’t know precisely what the situation is here, but after discovery and preliminaries are out of the way there is the usual effort by the plaintiff to concentrate on the plaintiff’s strengths. That in itself is no big deal legally.


Sometimes a defendant actually hates to see certain claims get dropped by a plaintiff because the defendant wanted to gang up on a weak point and try to finesse the real issues in the case. Maybe that's the case here. Dunno
