In all actions assigned to a judge where disclosure has not been completed, the court may order a preliminary conference as soon as practicable after the action has been assigned. The matters to be considered at the preliminary conference may include simplification and limitation of factual and legal issues, establishment of a timetable for the completion of all disclosure proceedings, the addition of other necessary parties and settlement of the action.
