Changes Made After Publication and Comment. The Committee made no substantive changes to Rule 34 fol- lowing publication. COMMITTEE NOTES ON RULES—2009 AMENDMENT Former Rules 29, 33, and 34 adopted 7-day periods for their respective motions. This period has been ex- panded to 14 days. Experience has proved that in many cases it is not possible to prepare a satisfactory motion in 7 days, even under the former rule that excluded in- termediate Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays. This led to frequent requests for continuances, and the filing of bare bones motions that required later supple- mentation. The 14-day period—including intermediate Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays as provided by Rule 45(a)—sets a more realistic time for the filing of these motions. Rule 35.
