District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia has reduced the time for filing reply briefs from 14 to 6 days. Further, the time for filing oppositions or responses to motions in Maryland District or Circuit Court now depends on whether your case is in an MDEC Court (a court with electronic filing). Additionally, the DC Superior Court Civil Rules were revised to better align with the Federal Rules.

I last updated this article for the Fall 2015 edition of DC Trial.
