UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF OKLAHOMA LOCAL COURT RULES LOCAL CIVIL RULES AND LOCAL CRIMINAL RULES PREAMBLE AUTHORITY. These local rules of the United States District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma are promulgated under the authority of Title 28, United States Code, Section 2071; Rule 83 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure; and Rule 57 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure. These local civil and criminal rules are promulgated to supplement the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure with local court procedure. UNIFORM NUMBERING. The Judicial Conference of the United States has required uniform numbering for all local court rules in conformity with the Federal Rules. They require a “.1" designation be added to the number of the Federal Rule of Civil or Criminal Procedure to indicate that the federal rule is being supplemented by a local civil or criminal court rule. For example, if Fed. R. Civ. P. 4 is being supplemented, the local civil rule is designated LCvR4.1; or if Fed. R. Crim. P. 5.1 is supplemented, it is designated LCrR5.1.1. Robin J. Cauthron, Chief Judge April 28, 2008
