M.D.N.C. LCrR16.1

Discovery Motions

activein force · 2026-06-01 – presentact-effective-date

Discovery motions filed by a defendant who is represented by counsel must

include a statement that counsel has fully reviewed the government's case file before

bringing the motion or a statement that such file is not available for counsel's review.

The filing of a discovery motion which does not include such certification may cause the

Court to deny the motion, to disapprove payment to court-appointed counsel in regard to

a motion made unnecessary by examination of the file, or to impose other sanctions under

LCrR 57.3 in the discretion of the Court.
