Unless the court orders that they be filed sooner, motions in limine shall be in writing and shall be presented to the court no later than immediately prior to voir dire examination in jury cases and opening statements in bench cases. The court, in its discretion, may consider motions in limine presented thereafter if it determines that the grounds, for the motion, became known subsequent to the deadline or for other good cause. All orders on motions in limine shall be reduced to writing by the movant's counsel and presented to the court for ruling prior to voir dire examination in jury cases and opening statements in bench cases.
