Rule 11 Agreement in a Divorce Case

Hello! Good Afternoon. My name is Daniel Ogbeide. I'm one of the attorneys here at the law office of Bryan Fagan. I have been working here for over a year and a half. Today I'm going to cover Rule 11 agreements in a divorce case. A Rule 11 agreement is just another way of saying any other agreement that you may have. It is different from mediation, which the law has to be entered as an order somehow. Rule 11 agreement is just an agreement between the parties or the attorneys and the parties. Usually attorneys enter into a rule 11 agreement to extend discovery deadlines to reach some kind of agreement.
