Fed. R. Civ. P. 29
Stipulations About Discovery Procedure
Unless the court orders otherwise, the parties may stipulate
that:
(a) a deposition may be taken before any person, at any time or
place, on any notice, and in the manner specified—in which event
it may be used in the same way as any other deposition; and
(b) other procedures governing or limiting discovery be modified—but a stipulation extending the time for any form of discovery must have court approval if it would interfere with the time
set for completing discovery, for hearing a motion, or for trial.
(As amended Mar. 30, 1970, eff. July 1, 1970; Apr. 22, 1993, eff. Dec.
1, 1993; Apr. 30, 2007, eff. Dec. 1, 2007.)

Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law.
