Opinion
CIVIL ACTION NO. 15-cv-0110
05-13-2016
JOHNISHA CLINKSCALE v. NATIONAL FACILITY SERVICES, LLC.
JUDGE HICKS
MEMORANDUM ORDER
Plaintiff's Motion to Compel (Doc. 28) is denied. Local Rule 37.1 requires counsel to communicate in person or by telephone in an attempt to resolve discovery disputes without court intervention. Communications by email do not comply. And leaving a message for opposing counsel at 2:00 p.m. on the day the motion is filed does not constitute a good-faith effort to resolve the dispute.
The motion also fails to comply with Rule 7.4. No supporting memorandum or brief was filed with the motion.
THUS DONE AND SIGNED in Shreveport, Louisiana, this 13th day of May, 2016.
