A. Motions To Compel: All motions for an order compelling disclosure or discovery must include a certification that the movant has, in good faith, conferred or attempted to confer with the person or party failing to make disclosure or discovery in an effort to obtain it without court action. Motions to compel that fail to make such certification will not be considered by the Court. At any hearing on such motions, the Court may inquire of the parties what good faith efforts have been employed to resolve the discovery dispute and may deny a motion to compel until satisfactory efforts at resolution have been made.
