How to use this state page

Start with the court that controls the filing. For state cases, check the statewide rules and the local trial or appellate court page. For deadline math, use the court-specific holiday calendar when the rule excludes court holidays.

If the matter is in federal court, use the federal district links below. State court holidays do not automatically control federal district court deadlines.
