MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
ASPEN, Chief Judge:
Plaintiff Advent Electronics brings this diversity action against Defendants Bernard Buckman and Bernard A. Buckman Enterprises, alleging that the defendants violated covenants in which they agreed not to compete against Advent Electronics. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 15(a), the defendants now move for leave to amend their answer and counterclaim, and to add a jury demand. For the reasons set forth below, we grant leave to amend the answer, but strike the jury demand as untimely and deny leave to amend the counterclaim as futile.
