L. R. Prac. Sup. Ct. 2.11

As amended through August 22, 2024

Rule 2.11 - Trial Setting

Cases set for trial on a day certain must be tried when reached, and shall remain on the trial calendar to be tried in the order in which they are set or as otherwise ordered by the Court. The fact that a case has been set for trial on a specific day will not give it precedence over cases for a prior day. The case with the lowest case number generally has precedence over cases with higher case numbers. Nevertheless, should more than one trial be set to begin on the same day, the determination as to which trial shall take precedence is at the Court's discretion.

(A) It shall be the duty of the attorneys or parties appearing in person to be ready for trial when their cases are called.

(B) All jury trials shall be calendared to start at 9:00 a.m. on the first day of trial unless the Court sets a different time. The attorneys must appear in the chambers of the trial judge 30 minutes before the start of trial on the first day unless otherwise ordered by the Court.
