the undersigned’s standing order (attached). The dispute procedures in it require, among other

things, that if a meet-and-confer by other means does not resolve the parties’ dispute, lead counsel

for the parties must meet and confer in person (if counsel are local) and then submit a joint-letter

brief with information about any unresolved disputes. If counsel cannot navigate the filing of a joint

letter brief, they may schedule a short case management conference call through courtroom deputy

Lashanda Scott. The letter brief must be filed under the Civil Events category of “Motions and

Related Filings > Motions – General > Discovery Letter Brief.” After reviewing the joint letter brief,

argument.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
