AAA AC SUPPLIES, INC., Plaintiff, v. FEDERATED MUTUAL INSURANCE COMPANY, Defendant
ORDER
LESLIE HOFFMAN PRICE UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE.
This cause came on for consideration without oral argument on the following motion filed herein:
MOTION: MOTION TO COMPEL BETTER ANSWERS TO INTERROGATORIES AND BETTER RESPONSES TO REQUESTS FOR PRODUCTION (Doc. No. 25)
FILED: April 30, 2024
THEREON it is ORDERED that the motion is DENIED without prejudice.
The motion fails to comply with the word count limitations set forth in the Standing Order on Discovery Motions. See Doc. No. 19 ¶ 2. The motion also fails to set forth an adequate conferral; an email on March 29, 2024 and a conferral letter on April 17, 2024 do not suffice. See id. ¶ 1; Local Rule 3.01(g); see also Doc. No. 18, at 4 (“The term ‘confer' in Rule 3.01(g) requires a substantive conversation in person or by telephone in a good faith effort to resolve the motion without court action and does not envision an exchange of ultimatums by fax, letter, or e-mail.” (emphasis in original)).
DONE and ORDERED.
