Examples for Submissions Referenced in Trial Management Orders

Judge's Copies

Judge Baggio expects all CM/ECF Registered Users under Local Rule 5-1(a), to comply with Local Rule 5-10(a) which provides:

Unless otherwise ordered by the Court, after electronically filing documents, paper copies of documents* shall be properly fastened pursuant to LR 10-1(e), and shall include the Notice of Electronic Filing marked as a "JUDGE'S COPY", and should be delivered to the Clerk's Office within three business days after filing. 

*Dispositive motions and motions for injunctive relief (including all related documents), Social Security administrative records, and any other documents (including all related documents) that, in the aggregate, are in excess of ten pages.

Additionally, Judge Baggio prefers that Judge's paper copy (1) that contains exhibits/attachments, or (2) are of a combined filing of two inches or more be placed in three-ring binder with tabs for all documents and exhibits.

Parties filing objections to a Findings and Recommendation, or a response to such an objection, are expected to comply with Local Rule 5-10(a) as to the objection and the response, but they do not need to file Judge’s copies of the Findings and Recommendation itself or the underlying briefing, which is already in the record.

Proposed Orders

Proposed orders (except for protective orders or pretrial orders) or judgments should not be filed in ECF unless requested by the Court. If proposed documents are requested, they should be emailed to  in Word format.

Protective Orders

  • Judge Baggio uses a modified version of the Tier 2 stipulated protective order template that is available on the district’s website. Parties are to use Judge Baggio’s specific template
    ( Tier 2 Protective Order_AMB Template_Final ). If parties make any of their own changes or additions to Judge Baggio’s template, they shall file two versions of their stipulated protective order: one clean version and one version that uses tracked edits to clearly show any changes as compared to Judge Baggio’s template.
  • The second document ( Tier 2 Protective Order_AMB Template_Final_Marked Up ) shows the differences in tracked edits between Judge Baggio’s template and the district’s Tier 2 model template. It is just for the parties’ awareness.
