Requests for expedited treatment must state prior efforts to expedite and include a proposed order with a response date or other provision for the other side's right to be heard.
If expedited treatment is requested the request should state what has already been done to attempt to expedite the matter (personal consultation with opposing counsel, email service on opposing party, etc.). It should also include a proposed form of order that provides a response date or deadline or some other provision for the other sides right to be heard.

Expedited Treatment Request
Oral argument is not set unless requested, and a request for oral argument should include additional information beyond what was already presented.
The Court normally will not set oral argument unless it is requested. If it is requested, the Court will expect any additional information and probably not what has already been presented.
