Anyone seeking a conference with the judge, or making inquiries about scheduling, appointed-counsel assignments, or transcripts, must first contact the Court Administrator to avoid conflicts.

After any allowed briefing or additional-filing period, parties may—and are encouraged to—send the Court a reminder letter with only a brief description of the pending matter and the date it was made or taken under advisement.

Counsel or parties must notify the Court Administrator by noon on the business day before a matter is to be placed on the law-and-motion calendar.

A document eligible for filing by mail may instead be submitted by telefax or electronic transmission under the stated procedure.

A telefaxed or electronically submitted document will not be accepted unless it is legible, has all necessary signatures, and does not cause telephone or telefax charges to be reversed to the Court.

Documents and filings containing only the attorney’s signature may be filed via fax or email, and the original will no longer need to be filed.

A telefaxed or electronically transmitted document is filed when the Clerk of Court receives it.

Settlement documents must be prepared and filed within 30 days.

If the Clerk does not timely receive the signed original, the Court may strike the telefaxed or electronically submitted document, which then has no force or effect.
