"There Will Be No Rambo Tactics, Acerbic Shrillness, or Other Forms of Elementary School Behavior"

From Judge Fred Biery's Court Advisory, this one from Nine Line Apparel, Inc. v. Sergio, but apparently normal for his cases:

As this case begins, the Court wishes to apprise counsel and the parties of the Court's expectations concerning the conduct of discovery and other matters:

  1. Subject to matters of privilege, the Court expects the parties to engage in full and open discovery, laying all cards on the table with the goal being the early and less expensive resolution of this dispute for the benefit of the parties. See generally FED. R. CIV. P. 26(b)(1) and W. DIST. LOC. R. CV-16 and CV-26 through CV-37.
  2. There will be no Rambo tactics, acerbic shrillness, or other forms of elementary school behavior. Simply put: Do not play games.
  3. Make time for earspace, i.e. talking and listening as opposed to texting and emailing.
