N.D. W. Va. LR Cr P 47.01
Motions
(a) Pretrial Motions: Unless otherwise ordered, all motions, including motions
for a bill of particulars under Fed. R. Crim. P. 7(f), shall be filed within fourteen (14) days
after receipt by defense counsel of LR Cr P 16.01 materials unless the Court, for good
cause shown, extends the time upon written application made within the fourteen (14)
day period. Such application shall set forth the grounds upon which the motion is made
and shall be served on the opposing party.
All pretrial motions and accompanying memoranda shall contain the reason and
legal support for granting the motion. Within seven (7) days of service, the opposing
party shall file a response to all such motions with legal support or memoranda. All
pretrial motions, responses and memoranda shall be filed with the Court and served
upon all other counsel of record and any person appearing pro se.
Pretrial motions, responses and memoranda shall cite reasons and provide points
of authority and legal support, either in the body or in a separate brief, when their
complexity requires more than a short statement of authorities.
(b) Post-trial Motions: Unless the court extends the time, all post-trial motions
shall be filed within fourteen (14) days from the return of the verdict by the jury or the
Court. Unless the Court extends the time, the non-moving party shall file a response
within fourteen (14) days following the filing of post-trial motions.
