Generally, the Court does not accept courtesy copies. Please do not prepare them and do not try to deliver them. If a courtesy copy is needed, the Court will contact counsel to request one. If the Court requests courtesy copies, please deliver those copies to the drop-box outside the Courtroom Deputy’s office. A delivery signature will not be available. Courtesy copies need not be delivered in an envelope unless the pleading contains under seal material.

If the Court requests courtesy copies, those copies should (a) always be printed from ECF after electronic filing so that the copies include the ECF header; (b) be printed double sided (on both sides of the paper) whenever possible; (c) if in excess of 50 pages, should be spiral bound on the side, and (d) any exhibits should be tabbed.
