(b) Memoranda of Law

A memorandum of law that exceeds the 15-page limit of Local Rule 7.1 may be stricken without advance notice to the filer. The parties are expected to make diligent effort to conform to the page limit and file a motion for leave to file an oversized brief only where cause can be demonstrated. Parties are encouraged to include hyperlinks to reported cases, statutes, docket entries, and exhibits referred to in their memoranda of law. Please see http://www.ned.uscourts.gov/internetDocs/cmecf/hyperlinking_attorneys_word.pdf for directions on how to include hyperlinks in filings.
