Open consultation packet
Important limits: This tool does not decide whether a compliance conference is required, determine compliance, evaluate disclosure sufficiency, select issues or legal positions, create discovery demands or responses, calculate deadlines, interpret an order, choose evidence, predict an outcome, contact a court or person, exchange, file, serve, upload, or send anything. The current notice, order, judge or part rules, official court information, and qualified professional guidance control.

Stop and verify before relying on this checklist when

  • The current notice, order, conference purpose, location, appearance method, or local requirement is unclear.
  • A prior order, disclosure obligation, discovery status, or unresolved issue requires legal interpretation.
  • A deadline, filing, service, exchange, redaction, confidentiality, or evidence question remains unresolved.
  • Safety, coercion, language access, disability access, technology, transportation, or childcare could affect participation.
  • A proposed statement could reveal confidential facts, strategy, allegations, financial data, settlement positions, or privileged communications.
