12. Discovery Disputes. All parties with a discovery dispute in a
case pending before, or referred to, Judge Vadas shall comply with
the following:
a. Discovery motions may be addressed to the Court in three
ways. A motion may be noticed on not less than thirty-five (35) days
notice pursuant to Civil L.R. 7-2. Alternatively, a party may seek an
order shortening time under Civil L.R. 6-3 if the circumstances
justify that relief. In emergencies during discovery events (e.g.,
depositions), the Court is available pursuant to Civil L.R. 37-1(b).
b. In the event a discovery dispute arises, counsel for the
party seeking discovery shall in good faith confer in person with
counsel for the party failing to make that discovery in an attempt to
resolve the dispute without the Court’s involvement, as required by
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 37 and Civil L.R. 37-1(a). The
meeting must be in person, except where good cause is shown why a
telephone conference is adequate. A declaration setting forth these
meet and confer efforts, and the final positions of each party, shall
be included in the moving papers. The Court will not consider
discovery motions unless the moving party has complied with Fed.
R. Civ. P. 37 and Civil L.R. 37-1.

Accordingly, the undersigned orders as follows:
2
(1) The parties shall meet and confer in person regarding the issues raised by Plaintiffs;
3
(2) If the parties are unable to resolve their differences, and conclude that the relief
4
Plaintiffs request is not also the subject of Plaintiffs’ pending motion to compel (see
5
Doc. No. 229), Plaintiffs shall file a motion either on 35-days’ notice or on shortened
6
time. See supra.
7
(3) This order terminates Doc. No. 231.
