The parties are encouraged to cooperate with each other in arranging and conducting
discovery, including discovery involved in any ADR program. Discovery must be conducted
according to limitations established at the Case Management Conference and confirmed in the
Case Management Plan. Absent leave of court, the parties have no authority to modify the
limitations placed on discovery by court order. Attorneys serving discovery requests must
review them to ascertain that they are applicable to the facts and contentions of the particular
case. Form discovery pleadings containing requests that are irrelevant to the facts and
contentions of the particular case must not be used.
