LAW AND MOTION CALENDAR Counsel
need not reserve hearing dates but should check below to make sure the desired
date is not blocked. The
default rule is that hearings on civil motions will be heard in person. The Court may notify the parties in advance
of the hearing that it will be heard via Zoom rather than in person. Parties may stipulate/request to have a
hearing by Zoom video, but they must do so at least one week in advance of the
hearing. The Court may deny the request
if it believes an in-person hearing would be more beneficial. The Court is disinclined to hold hearings via
Zoom for complex or dispositive motions or if counsel for all parties are
based locally. Judge Lin
does not issue tentative rulings. If the
Court determines a hearing is not necessary, it will usually be vacated no
later than two days before the hearing. ZOOM
