(a) Corporate Disclosure. In addition to the disclosures required by Fed. R. Civ. P. 7.1, a non-
governmental corporate party or a non-governmental party that seeks to intervene must file a
statement identifying:
(1) any subsidiary (except wholly-owned subsidiaries); and
(2) any affiliate that has issued shares of ownership to the public.
(b) Purpose. This requirement is intended to assist the court in determining whether conflicts-
of-interest might disqualify the judge from the case. Counsel may obtain information regarding a
judge’s financial interests by a written request to the clerk.
