Courtesy/Chambers Copy Requirements
The submission of chambers copies is often required for electronically filed documents. Whereas the local rules state whether and how soon chambers copies must be submitted, judges’ individual standing orders sometimes create additional requirements and may differ from the local rules in other particulars. If they are not in agreement, these orders supersede the local rules.
View general information requirements for courtesy/chambers copies under the local rules.
The pertinent parts of Judge Tigar’s standing orders are set forth below:
The Court requires courtesy copies of motions and related briefing, including attachments, exhibits, declarations, and other accompanying material. The Court discourages the service of courtesy copies of any other documents, except when specifically requested by the Court.
Courtesy copies shall be double-sided and three-hole-punched at the left margin. Courtesy copies of e-filed documents must bear the ECF stamp (case number, document number, date, and page number) on the top of each page. Side tabs, rather than bottom tabs, should be used to separate exhibits.
The quality, condition, and labeling of binders, when used, should be such that the Court can easily identify, review, and transport the binders’ contents. Whenever possible, the spine of a binder should not exceed three inches in width, even if that limitation results in the use of more than one binder.
All courtesy copies or hard copies of documents must be lodged with the Clerk’s office in Oakland for delivery to the chambers of Judge Tigar, even if the document is related to a case filed in or pending in San Francisco or San Jose.
