D. Del. LR 1.3
Sanctions
(a) In General. Sanctions may be imposed, at the discretion of the Court, for
violations of the Rules, as well as for violations of the Fed. R. Civ. P. and any order of
the Court. Such sanctions may include, but are not limited to, costs, fines and attorneys’
fees imposed on the offending party and that party’s attorney.
(b) Substantive Sanctions. In addition to financial penalties, failure of counsel
to comply with the Rules relating to trial preparation may be considered an abandonment
or a failure to prosecute or defend diligently, and judgment may be entered against the
defaulting party either with respect to a specific issue or the entire case. Likewise, failure
of counsel to comply with the Rules relating to motions may result in the determination
of the motion against the offending party.
