INFO
The judge typically allocates 30 minutes for specified initial and publication hearings and 15 or 30 minutes for Report & Review Hearings, but invites parties to request more or less time when warranted.
I typically set Preliminary Protective Hearings, Initial Dependency Hearings, Initial Guardianship Hearings, Initial Termination (a.k.a. Severance) Hearings, and Publication Hearings for 30 minutes to ensure sufficient time for all parties/counsel to be heard and for me to address all the statutory and rule requirements. I typically will set Report & Review Hearings for either 15 or 30 minutes, depending on the number of attorneys, guardians ad litem, and placements involved; the complexity of the case; and whether an interpreter is required. If you believe a particular hearing requires more or less time than what I typically allocate, please speak up and let me know.
