Please let the Court know if you did not get a ruling on a motion you filed either by addressing it in open court or by contacting the Judicial Assistant. The paper filing system is not perfect, and sometimes motions are not delivered to the division and there is no way of knowing that a motion was filed if we do not receive it. The Court welcomes a call to the Judicial Assistant to ask why you have not yet received a ruling.
