PRE-2024 COMMITTEE NOTE
The rule was simplified to refer to “a bill of particulars or any discovery matter,” and to
make clear that the requisite certification could be filed as part of the motion papers.
2024 COMMITTEE NOTE
The title of this rule has been updated to avoid confusion with Fed. R. Crim. P. 16.1,
which was enacted in 2019 and requires a “pretrial discovery conference” between
counsel.
