S.D. Ind. L.R. 5-12
Social Security Appeals
(a) Applicability of Federal Rules – Effective December 1, 2022, the Federal
Supplemental Rules for Social Security Actions Under 42 U.S.C. § 405(g) apply to such
actions, subject to the exception in 28 U.S.C. § 2074. The Federal Supplemental Rules
control in the event of any inconsistency with these rules.
(b) Briefing Schedule. The court finds good cause in all cases to revise the briefing
times in the Federal Supplemental Rules as follows: The plaintiff will have 56 days from
the date of the court's scheduling order to file a brief in support of the complaint. The
defendant will have 56 days after service of the plaintiff's brief to file a response, and
the plaintiff will have 28 days after service of the response brief to file a reply. Motions
for extension are disfavored absent compelling circumstances.
History
