Civil Law and Motion Calendar: Civil Law and Motion matters will be held on Fridays, at 10 a.m. via Zoom.  If parties wish to appear in person they can file a joint Stipulation requesting in-person hearing.  

Hearing dates do not need to be reserved.  However, parties should review the dates listed below regarding closed dates for Notices.  All Motions must be noticed pursuant to Civil Local Rule 7-3 (a) and (c).  

Tentative Rulings are not provided before the hearing date.

Criminal Calendar: Criminal Law and Motion are held on Fridays at 11 a.m. Parties can request Zoom appearances for out of custody status hearings and sentencings.  Changes of Plea must be in-person.  Zoom hearings will be held before in-person hearings.  CHAMBER'S COPIES:  Chamber's copies must be provided for all sentencing documents by the Tuesday of Sentencing.  

Discovery Disputes: The Court temporarily suspends the requirement in its Standing Order that parties must meet and confer in person before filing a joint discovery dispute statement. Parties must meet and confer either via video conference or by telephone to attempt to resolve their dispute informally, and any discovery dispute filing with the Court shall specify how and when the parties met and conferred. A mere exchange of letters, e-mails, or facsimile transmissions does not satisfy the requirement to meet and confer.

CHAMBER'S COPIES: Courtesy copies are required for any Motions for Summary Judgment, and any criminal sentencings and upon request of the Court. Courtesy copies should be three-hole punched on the left-hand side, in a binder, tabbed with a table of contents if needed and delivered to the Court no later than 2 days after filing of the document.
