of the trial date shall be sent within five working days of the verbal notification.
(b) Motions to be Filed Prior to a Jury Trial. All notices of trial shall contain the
provisions of paragraph 1.5(a) of this Plan. In actions to be tried by jury, the following procedure
shall be observed: (i) motions to provide peremptory challenges different from those provided in

party) must be filed at least 45 days prior to trial date; (ii) voir dire requests must be filed at least
seven days before trial; and (iii) requests for instructions must be filed before the commencement
of trial. Requests for standard instructions may be made by reference only to the appropriate
