Parties are advised of the informal discovery dispute process. Before filing discovery motions,

Magistrate Judge Wang’s chambers. If the Court is available, and the matter is determinable
without briefing, she will hear arguments and attempt to mediate a resolution. If the Court is not
available, or the matter is more complex, parties shall set a time for an informal discovery
conference. Parties may need to submit materials to chambers. Parties are not barred from filing
a formal motion, unless the court rules during the informal conference.
