IN RE DECEMBER 1, 2022 AMENDMENTS TO FEDERAL RULE OF CRIMINAL PROCEDURE 16
ORDER
JESSE M. FURMAN UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
On December 1, 2022, Rule 16 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure was amended to require that the Court “set a time” for each side's expert disclosures that is “sufficiently before trial to provide a fair opportunity for” the opposing party “to meet” the evidence. See Fed. R. Crim. P. 16(a)(1)(G)(ii), (b)(1)(C)(ii). Unless and until the Court orders otherwise, the Government shall make any expert disclosures no later than sixty days before trial, and the defense shall make any expert disclosures no later than thirty days before trial. If any party believes that the foregoing deadlines should be modified, the parties should promptly confer and then raise the issue with the Court by letter-motion.
SO ORDERED.
