D. Md. L.R. 103.6
Amendments of Pleadings
a) Original of Proposed Amendment to Accompany Motion
Whenever a party files a motion requesting leave to file an amended pleading, the
original of the proposed amended pleading shall accompany the motion. If the motion is
granted, an additional copy of the amended pleading need not be filed. The amended
pleading shall be deemed to have been served, for the purpose of determining the time for
response under Fed. R. Civ. P. 15(a), on the date that the Court grants leave for its filing.
b) Exhibits to Amended Pleadings
Unless otherwise ordered by the Court, only newly added exhibits are to be attached to
an amended pleading. However, if the amended pleading adds a new party, counsel shall
serve all exhibits referred to in the amended pleading upon the new party.
c) Identification of Amendments
Unless otherwise ordered by the Court, and except in cases in which the prior pleading
was filed by a self-represented party, the party filing an amended pleading shall file and serve
(1) a clean copy of the amended pleading and (2) a copy of the amended pleading in which
stricken material has been lined through or enclosed in brackets and new material has been
underlined or set forth in bold-faced type.
d) Requested Consent of Other Counsel
Before filing a motion requesting leave to file an amended pleading, counsel shall
attempt to obtain the consent of other counsel. Counsel shall state in the motion whether
the consent of other counsel has been obtained.

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.
