SLR 4-18.016: DISCOVERY IN FED CASES

A party seeking discovery as authorized by ORCP 36-46 must advise the court of the proposed discovery at the first appearance or first practicable opportunity. Unless the parties stipulate to a schedule for production of documents or other discovery, the court will hear the parties and impose a discovery schedule. If a party is unrepresented at the first appearance, discovery motions will be heard on the FED ex parte docket.
