D.D.C. LCvR 30.1
Service of Notice of Deposition
Service of a notice of deposition seven days in advance of the date set for taking the deposition
shall constitute "reasonable notice" to a party as required by Fed. R. Civ. P. 30(b), unless the
deposition is to be taken at a place more than 50 miles from the District of Columbia, in which
case 14 days shall constitute reasonable notice. The computation of time under this Rule shall be
governed by Fed. R. Civ. P. 6. The Court may enlarge or shorten the time on application of a
party for good cause shown. Nothing in this Rule modifies the provision in Fed. R. Civ. P. 32(a),
prohibiting the use of depositions against certain parties who with due diligence are unable to
obtain counsel to represent them, or against parties with less than 14 days' notice who file a
motion for protective order.
