History
Practice Tips 1. The District of Oregon includes Magistrate Judges in the random assignment of new civil case filings. 2. When selected as the assigned judge, the Magistrate Judge will be the presiding judicial officer and will conduct all pretrial proceedings in accordance with Fed. R. Civ. P. 72. 3. Magistrate Judges may modify scheduling orders issued by other judges. March 1, 2014: LR 72-1: Changed "contemplated" to "authorized," omitted the comma after "Fed. R. Civ. P. 72," and removed the words "from the Court."

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.
