No ex parte email communications with the Court (Judge or staff) are allowed. All ex parte communications are subject to disciplinary action.

All emails to the Court must copy all counsel of record and pro se parties. If a pro se party has not provided an email, counsel must forward a copy of the email, and any response, via regular mail--and counsel must certify to the Court that said procedure has been followed. Emails must be sent to official court addresses, not a personal or third-party email address.

Unsolicited emails to the Court are discouraged, except when extenuating and last-minute circumstances require prompt attention.
