S.D. Miss. L.U. Civ. R. 11
Signatures Required on Pleadings, Motions, and Other Papers
(a) Consistent with FED. R. CIV. P. 11, the filing of a signed pleading, motion, or other
document by any counsel is deemed to signify approval by all co-counsel. All
filed, signed documents must contain counsel’s name, address, telephone number,
fax number, e-mail address, and counsel’s bar membership identification number.
All documents filed and signed by a party not represented by an attorney must
contain the party’s name, address, telephone number, fax number, and e-mail
address. Every attorney and every litigant proceeding without legal counsel has a
continuing obligation to notify the clerk of court of address changes.
(b) Sanctions—Unreasonable Delays. Any delay or continuance occasioned by a
party’s failure to abide by these rules may result in the imposition of appropriate
sanctions, including assessment of costs and attorneys’ fees. In this regard, counsel
must immediately notify the appropriate judge if a pending motion is resolved by
the parties or if the civil action is settled.

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.
