Motion Calendar Days/Time/Location: Tuesdays & Thursdays at 9:30 a.m. remotely via Zoom. Motion Calendar hearings are limited to 5 minutes per case. The courtMap system only allows two (2) motions per case. In order for a second motion to be heard on the case by either side, the moving party must schedule a separate event in courtMAP. Cross-Notices of a Motion may only be allowed if it is mutually coordinated and if a separate court event is created subject to the two (2) motion limit.

To Make Calendar: Select available date and time via courtMap.  The filed motion(s) and all documents in support must be attached when the hearing is scheduled. Once a green "Success" message appears, the hearing has made calendar.  You must still prepare, file, and serve a Notice of Hearing.
