Effect of ADR on Pending Matters

The assignment of a matter to the ADR Program does not relieve the parties to that matter from complying with any other court orders or applicable provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code, the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure, or the local bankruptcy rules of this Court. Unless otherwise ordered by the Court, the assignment of this matter to the ADR Program does not delay or stay discovery, pretrial, hearing dates, or trial schedules. 61 Rule 9072-5.
