The Court encourages the parties to cooperate and communicate with their opponent and be appropriately responsive with one another by telephone, electronic means, or another appropriate means, and to exchange documents and information, and to further develop this case for trial or other resolution, and so that the parties can resolve among themselves any issues that can be resolved without the Court's involvement.
