In the absence of a previously-imposed deadline, all motions to exclude expert testimony must be filed sixty days before the trial preparation conference.
Fourteen days before the trial preparation conference, counsel and any pro se party shall submit proposed jury instructions and verdict forms. The jury instructions shall identify the source of the instruction and supporting authority, e.g., § 103, Fed. Jury Practice, O'Malley, Grenig, and Lee (5th ed.).

In diversity cases where Colorado law applies, please submit instructions and verdict forms that conform to CJI-Civ 4th.
Seven days before the trial preparation conference, the parties shall file via CM/ECF (1) their proposed voir dire questions; (2) their witness lists; and (3) their exhibit lists.

1) jury selection;
2) sequestration of witnesses;
3) timing of presentation of witnesses and evidence;
4) anticipated evidentiary issues;
