Local Rule LR 7.5: Response to Motion

LR 7.5 Response to Motion. Unless these rules or the assigned Judge prescribes otherwise, each party opposing a motion shall serve and file a response within fourteen (14) days of service of the motion, except that in cases of motions for summary judgment the time shall be twenty-one (21) days after service of the motion. Failure to respond within the applicable time period shall indicate that there is no opposition to a motion. Where ministerial motions (e.g., to extend time, exceed page limits, for a leave of absence) have been filed, every response shall be accompanied by a proposed order. No proposed order need accompany responses to motions requesting non-ministerial relief (e.g., motions for summary judgment, to dismiss, for judgment on the pleadings, to add or drop parties, to exclude evidence, to remand, for injunctive relief).
