July 29, 2022 Opinion or Order Filing 24 PAPERLESS ORDER denying without prejudice #22 Motion for Discovery and #23 Motion to Compel Discovery. Plaintiff filed two motions seeking various discovery from Defendant. Plaintiff is advised that pursuant to the Local Rules of this Court, parties may not file motions without first endeavoring to resolve the dispute with the opposing party. S.D. Fla. L.R. 7.1(a)(3). This rule further requires the moving party to include a certificate of conferral in the motion. The failure to comply with Local Rule 7.1(a)(3) is grounds to deny the motion. Plaintiff's motions do not comply with Local Rule 7.1(a)(3) and are therefore denied without prejudice. Additionally, Plaintiff is further advised that discovery is to be conducted by the Parties. Plaintiff may only call upon the court to resolve specific disputes that arise during that process after meaningful conferral with Defendant. Signed by Judge Donald M. Middlebrooks on 7/29/2022.
