Service

Mail to all parties

The judge will mail each party, or its attorney if represented, a copy of the random juror list at least 20 days before trial.

In criminal cases, all parties must exchange demanded discovery as soon as practical after the plea.

Each party must file a list of five jurors it wishes to strike between 5 and 15 days before trial.

A formal motion to withdraw or substitute counsel must be filed before any further proceedings in the case.

The jury demand and required fee are due within 10 days after the not-guilty plea.

In order for the court to grant a continuance, the law requires that a formal motion be made to the court with notice to the opposing party.

When no one objects and the court approves a continuance request, no formal hearing is required.

Where time permits, a continuance request must be written and state specific reasons; merely saying a witness is unavailable is insufficient to establish good cause.
