UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE

1 The Court follows the rule that the completion date means that all discovery must be finished by the 

deadline set in the Rule 16 Case Management and Scheduling Order. Litigants—by their own 

agreement—may conduct discovery after the formal completion date but the Court will likely not resolve 

discovery disputes after the discovery completion date. In fact, motions to compel filed after the discovery 

deadline are presumptively untimely and may be denied on that basis alone.
