Comments<br />

(2003) Because correspondence between or among counsel may be relevant to<br />

a motion before the <strong>Court</strong>, e.g. compliance with the pre-filing<br />

conferences required of counsel, see Local Rules 7.1.A.3, 26.1.1, copies<br />

of such correspondence may be appended as exhibits to motions or<br />

memoranda.<br />

(2007) Amended to reflect renumbering of paragraphs of Local Rule 5.1.<br />

Rule 9.1 Request for Three-Judge <strong>District</strong> <strong>Court</strong><br />

<strong>Court</strong> Requested" or the equivalent shall be included immediately<br />

following the title of the first pleading in which the cause of action<br />

requiring a three-judge district court is pleaded. Unless the basis for<br />

the request is apparent from the pleading, it shall be set forth in the<br />

pleading or in a brief statement attached thereto. The words "Three-<br />

Judge <strong>District</strong> <strong>Court</strong> Requested" or the equivalent on a pleading is a<br />

sufficient request under Title 28, <strong>United</strong> <strong>States</strong> Code, Section 2284.<br />
