Applies to

Petition

If the Petitioner omits the order, the Clerk must ensure it is attached to the petition and every copy presented when the petition is filed.

A magistrate not specifically designated under Section 1(b)(2) may, within 12 hours of arrest, order transfer of the defendant to the Sheriff accompanied by documentation necessary to establish probable cause.

The order takes effect when the original petition is filed, remains a temporary restraining order for fourteen days, continues as a temporary injunction if uncontested at a hearing by then, and terminates upon a final order or dismissal.

After approving the Final Pretrial Order, the Court will not consider a dilatory matter before jury selection or the start of a nonjury trial unless good cause is shown on the face of the motion or pleading.

Matters not raised at the Final Pretrial Conference are waived, and the Court generally will not hear on the trial date matters not raised there or filed afterward, absent good cause.

The conference must be in the form promulgated by the Court.

The written statement of contentions must be double-spaced and in regular-size print.

Summary-judgment motions and responses must be succinct and brief; written supporting argument and copies of relied-upon authorities may be attached.

The case must be tried on its scheduled date.

If the case is not reached for trial for a reason other than incomplete discovery, it must be reset within 120 days of the scheduled date, and pretrial deadlines are not extended absent good cause for additional time.

A movant seeking a continuance because discovery is incomplete must state why discovery is incomplete, how much time is needed to finish it, and a proposed new trial date.
