Compliance With Orders

(1) Whenever a judge issues an interlocutory or compensation order and a party fails to comply with that order, the party seeking enforcement of the order may file a motion to compel. Before filing the motion, the moving party must contact the opposing party to inform the party that a motion to enforce the order will be filed. (2) Before filing the motion, the moving party must contact the judge’s staff to obtain a hearing date and write the date in the motion in bold print as follows: THIS MOTION WILL BE HEARD ON ____, 20___, AT ___A.M./P.M. (3) All responses must be filed and served no later than five (5) business days before the hearing. (4) If the judge determines that a party failed to comply with the order, the judge may order compliance and refer the noncompliant party for assessment of a civil penalty.
