tween the parties regarding the modifications. C. Discovery Disputes. Parties shall follow Fed. R. Civ. P. 37(a) and Local Rule 37.2 with the following modifications. 1. Requirement to Meet and Confer. Any party wishing to raise a discovery dispute with the Court must first confer in good faith with the opposing party in an effort to resolve the dispute. An exchange of letters or emails alone does not satisfy this requirement. Counsel must respond promptly and in good faith to any request from another party to confer in accordance with this paragraph.
3. Discovery Conference/Oral Argument. The Court retains discretion to rule on the dispute based on the parties’ letter submissions, without more formal briefing, and with or without a conference. The Court’s preference, however, is to hold a conference with the parties and attempt to resolve the dispute during the conference. If formal briefing is required, the Court will set a schedule for such briefing at the conference. Source ↗
