Although Defendant may not have complied with Local Rule
7(E), district courts in the Eastern District of Virginia do not
view a violation of that rule as fatal to a motion for summary
judgment.
See Hunt v. Calhoun Cnty. Bank, Inc., 8 F. Supp. 3d
720, 731 (E.D. Va. 2014) (“Failure to meet and confer does not
automatically result in denial of a motion. Rather, sanctions for
failure to meet and confer lie within a district court’s discretion
and its inherent power to control its docket.” (citations
