D. Minn. LR 26.4
Filing of Discovery Documents [Abrogated]
History
[Abrogated in 2001] 2001 Advisory Committee’s Note to LR 26.4 Fed. R. Civ. P. 5(d) was amended in 2000, changing the default rule for the filing of discovery and disclosure documents. Prior to the amendment, discovery documents were required to be filed, unless the court ordered otherwise. Under the amendment, initial and expert disclosure documents and enumerated discovery documents are not to be filed until they are used in the proceeding, or the Court orders that they be filed. The 1991 and 1996 amendments to the local rule anticipated the 2000 Amendments in the national rule by restricting the filing of disclosure and discovery documents. In view of the restrictions in the national rule, the local rule is now superfluous, and has been eliminated.
