Link Order on Motion to Continue
EO: On June 3, 2026, Defendant Wailea Highlands Community Association, Inc. moved to continue the August 14, 2026 hearing before the Court. Dkt. No. 42 . Local Rule 7.8 requires "counsel contemplating the filing of any motion [to] first contact opposing counsel to discuss thoroughly... the substance of the contemplated motion and any potential partial or complete resolution... at least seven (7) days prior to the filing of the motion." Rule 7.8 is intended to "rigorously vet the substance of [ ] motions" to prevent unnecessary filings or to at least narrow those that are necessary; compliance with the Rule is not optional. Bros. Healthcare, Inc. v. Brian Carter, Inc., No. 21-CV-383 (DKW)(RT), 2022 WL 1046287, at *1 (D. Haw. Apr. 7, 2022) ("Rule 7.8 is not a formality. It mandates a thorough discussion of the specific rationales and reasoning on which the movant intends to rely in a particular motion.").Defendant has not filed a statement of compliance with this Local Rule, and it appears that no pre-filing conference took place for the motion to continue. Defendant has not asserted that an exception to Rule 7.8 applies here, nor does the Court's own research suggest as much. See LR 7.8 (making exceptions for "discovery motions,... matters in which at least one party is pro se, and motions made during trial"). Because Defendants have not satisfied LR7.8, the Court DENIES the motion, Dkt. No. 42, without prejudice to refiling, as appropriate. IT IS SO ORDERED. (CHIEF JUDGE DERRICK K. WATSON)(tyk)
