Plaintiff has filed several discovery requests. Plaintiff is referred to the Discovery

required by Local Rules 30-250(a), 33-250(c), 34-250(c) and 36-250(c).” (Discovery Order at 1.) 

Plaintiff is directed to send his discovery requests to defendant McMahon’s counsel and not to

submit copies to the court for filing. If a motion to compel discovery must be filed, copies of the

relevant discovery requests and responses must be attached to the motion as exhibits.

must include a proof of service showing the date on which he placed a complete copy of the

document in the mail to defendant’s counsel and the complete address to which the copy was
