Some day the judges will accept service by NEF like the rest of us.
Hopefully that day will come sooner than later.

Mark,
Killing trees seems to be a byproduct of being a lawyer. Years ago when in the Encino Law Center, it took me whole lot of work to get the bldg. to agree to even have a recycle bin,
let alone use it. It's a shame..

I file the Motion and then I file the Notice of Hearing with a copy of the motion attached as is set forth in the Notice of Hearing which on its face says the motion is attached. I then provide the Judge a copy of the Notice of Hearing which contains a full and complete copy of the Motion fully tabbed. Today I received a call from VZ's judicial assistant requesting that I provide a judge's copy of the Motion in addition to the already provided Notice of Hearing that had a fully tabbed copy of the Motion attached to it. She wants another 100 pages with exhibits of the identical motion because if they are filed as separate documents, they must be provided separately. Obviously I complied with the request as the path of least resistance by printing out another 100 pages, tabbing the
exhibits again and paying anther $6 to mail it.

Each judge has their own particular prefences and internal procedures on these things, but I thought the purpose of the judge's copy was merely to alleviate Court staff's need to print out the motion. To me it was common sense that the first four pages are the Notice of Hearing with proof of service and then everything after that is the Motion itself, especially when it is tabbed. This request strikes me as the ultimate in form over substance and just leaves me scratching my head.

I am quite well aware of the requirement to provide a judge's copy of electronically filed motions under the local rules and diligently forward a copy after filing. I file the Motion and then I file the Notice of Hearing with a copy of the motion attached as is set forth in the Notice of Hearing which on its face says the motion is attached. I then provide the Judge a copy of the Notice of Hearing which contains a full and complete copy of the Motion fully tabbed. Today I received a call from VZ's judicial assistant requesting that I provide a judge's copy of the Motion in addition to the already provided Notice of Hearing that had a fully tabbed copy of the Motion attached to it. She wants another 100 pages with exhibits of the identical motion because if they are filed as separate documents, they must be provided separately. Obviously I complied with the request as the path of least resistance by printing out another 100 pages, tabbing the exhibits again and paying anther $6 to mail it.
Are the rest of you killing trees like this? Each judge has their own particular prefences and internal procedures on these things, but I thought the purpose of the judge's copy was merely to alleviate Court staff's need to print out the motion. To me it was common sense that the first four pages are the Notice of Hearing with proof of service and then everything after that is the Motion itself, especially when it is tabbed. This request strikes me as the ultimate in form over substance and just leaves me scratching my head.
