Such authority includes, but is not limited to, case law, rules, statutes, regulations, and 

treatises. To the extent case law, rules, statutes, or regulations are cited, the entire case, 

rule, statute or regulation shall be included in the binder. The case law shall be organized

regulation, or treatise that supports the citations of authority relied upon in their briefs.

document is filed. If an emergency motion (such as a motion for a TRO or preliminary 

injunction) is filed that requires more immediate attention from the Court, the parties shall
