Sixth Judicial District Court, Nebraska Pre-Motion Conference Requirements

Before seeking to compel discovery, the parties must personally consult and make reasonable efforts to resolve their differences, and the motion must show that they could not reach an agreement; this applies to pro se parties as well.

To curtail undue delay in the administration of justice, all motions relating to compulsion of discovery shall include a written showing that after personal consultation between counsel for opposing parties and reasonable efforts to resolve differences, counsel are unable to reach an accord. As used herein, counsel includes parties who are acting pro se.
