The clerk shall set the matter for a scheduling conference on a date approximately six months after filing. Attorneys must submit a short statement of fact one week in advance of the scheduling conference. Procedure for Conference a. The judge will complete the civil scheduling order and the clerk will mail a copy to all attorneys. The order is final unless objected to within ten days of mailing.
Jury fees are due upon making the demand.
Failure to pay the fee at or before the time of the scheduling conference shall constitute a waiver of jury trial. Each judge has certain specific dates and times when motions are heard. Motions should be scheduled consistent with any scheduling order. The clerk will need to know the case number, the judge assigned to the case, what the motion is for and how long the motion is expected to take. If you wish to schedule a motion in a case where there is already a motion set by another party, you must still call the Clerk of the civil division and make arrangements, as there may not be time to hear both motions on the same date.
