California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Minto v. Duren (In re Minto), D071237 (Cal. App. 2017):
6. The argument is also forfeited since it was raised for the first time on reply. (People v. Clayburg (2012) 211 Cal.App.4th 86, 93 [arguments are forfeited when not raised in opening brief unless good reason is shown for the failure to present them before].) Husband does not state any reason why a due process claim could not have been raised in his opening brief.
