Detailed Drafting Rules

Document RequirementMandatory

Joint statement (max 5 single-spaced pages) required for discovery disputes.

Instead of a noticed motion, the parties shall prepare a joint statement of not more than five single-spaced pages (12-point font or greater) stating the nature and status of the dispute and attesting to their good faith meet and confer efforts. Each side thus has approximately 2.5 pages of the submission. Issue-by-issue, the joint statement shall describe each unresolved issue, summarize each party’s position with appropriate legal authority, and provide each party’s final proposed compromise before addressing the next issue. It is preferable that the parties file a separate statement for each dispute. When necessary, the parties may submit supporting declarations and documentation of up to 12 pages.
