Motions: Briefing Schedules, Oral Arguments, Failure to File Brief

N.D. Ill. LR 78.3

The court may set a briefing schedule. Oral argument may be allowed in the court’s discretion. Failure to file a supporting or answering memorandum shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the motion or a withdrawal of opposition thereto, but the court on its own motion or that of a party may strike the motion or grant the same without further hearing. Failure to file a reply memorandum within the requisite time shall be deemed a waiver of the right to file.
