Motions for Summary Judgment

activein force · 2024-04-01 – presentact-effective-date

(a) Statement of Undisputed Facts.

(1) A motion for summary judgment shall be accompanied by a separate Statement of

Undisputed Facts that concisely sets forth all facts that the movant contends are

undisputed and entitle the movant to judgment as a matter of law.

(2) The Statement of Undisputed Facts shall be a separate filing, not an attachment to the

motion for summary judgment. Each “fact” shall be set forth in a separate, numbered

paragraph and shall identify the evidence establishing that fact, including the page

and line of any document to which reference is made, unless opposing counsel has

expressly acknowledged that the fact is undisputed.

(3) For purposes of a motion for summary judgment, any fact alleged in the movant’s

Statement of Undisputed Facts shall be deemed admitted unless expressly denied or

otherwise controverted by a party objecting to the motion. An objecting party that is

contesting the movant’s Statement of Undisputed Facts shall file a Statement of

Disputed Facts, which shall be numbered correspondingly to the Statement of

Undisputed Facts, and which shall identify the evidence establishing the dispute, in

accordance with the requirements of paragraph (a)(2).

(4) If an objecting party contends that there are additional undisputed facts not contained

in the moving party’s statement of undisputed facts which preclude summary

judgment, that party shall file a separate Statement of Undisputed Facts setting forth

such additional undisputed facts. Such statement shall be prepared in accordance

with the requirements of paragraph (a)(2), except that the additional undisputed facts

shall be numbered consecutively to the moving party’s undisputed facts.

(5) If an objecting party files a separate statement of additional undisputed facts and the

movant contests any of those facts, the movant shall file a separate statement setting

forth what additional facts are disputed, numbered correspondingly to the opposing

party's additional undisputed facts, at the same time it files its reply pursuant to LR

Cv 7.

(b) Supporting Documents. Unless otherwise requested or permitted by the Court, only the

relevant portion(s) of documents submitted in support of or in opposition to a motion for

summary judgment shall be included in the attachments.

(c) Successive Motions. No party shall file more than one motion for summary judgment unless

the Court otherwise permits for good cause shown.

(d) Objections and Replies. The timing and filing of objections and replies in connection with

motions for summary judgment shall be governed by LR Cv 7, unless otherwise directed by

the Court.

Effective 12/1/17: §(a)(1),(2), and (5) amended. Effective 1/3/11: §(d) added. Effective 1/5/09: §§(a)(2) and (a)(4)

amended; §(a)(5) added. Effective 4/10/08: §§(a)(1) and (a)(4) amended. Effective 3/17/08: §§(a)(3) and (a)(4)

amended.
