W.D. La. LR 37.1
Discovery Motions
A motion relative to discovery will not be accepted for filing unless accompanied by a certificate of
counsel for the moving party stating that counsel have conferred in person or by telephone for
purposes of amicably resolving the issues and stating why they are unable to agree or stating that
opposing counsel has refused to so confer after reasonable notice. Counsel for the moving party must
arrange the conference. A proposed order must accompany each motion filed under this paragraph.
If the court finds that opposing counsel has willfully refused to meet and confer, or, having met,
willfully refused or failed to confer in good faith, the court may impose such sanctions as it deems
proper.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
