Rule FCRPP 40 - Case Management Conference(1) Unless notice is given to the court that a case is being mediated, within 60 days of service of the petition upon the respondent, either party may file a motion for a case management conference or the court may schedule a conference sua sponte. (2) Both parties and their counsel shall attend any case management conference, unless otherwise ordered by the court. (3) Each party shall file the following documents at least 7 days prior to the conference: (a) Any related motions; and (b) Any stipulations or agreements reached.(4) In the event of failure of a party or parties to appear at the conference, the court may, in accordance with its order, conduct a hearing in which proof may be taken or the case dismissed, as the court may determine appropriate. No case shall be dismissed based solely on a party's failure to attend the case management conference without the issuance of a show cause order and service of that order on the absent party and counsel of record, if any, by mail to his or her last known address. The notice shall clearly and plainly state that failure to attend the next scheduled court appearance could result in dismissal of the action and termination of all temporary orders, including temporary orders of custody, parenting time, time-sharing, visitation, child support, and maintenance.Ky.
