3 verified rules specific to this judge's division, grouped by requirement category. 95 total requirements apply in this courtroom across all layers — the Full Premium Report assembles the complete stack.
No judge-level deadline on record runs shorter than a statewide deadline with the same trigger. The sentinel compares quoted timing across every published rule scoped to this judge on each visit — a clean result today is re-earned tomorrow.
Department R12's trial schedule (Judge Mathewson): trial starts at 9:45 a.m. (be present by 9:30 a.m.); 15-minute breaks at about 10:45 a.m. and 2:45 p.m.; lunch from 12:00 – 1:30 p.m.; drinks with lids; and trial ending at about 4:00 – 4:15 p.m.
Department R12's trial setting orders (Judge Kory Mathewson): MSC briefs due at least five days before the conference; the documents due at the readiness calendar, served by statute or 5 calendar days before, whichever is sooner (motions in limine under Local Rules 411.2 and 415, joint witness and exhibit lists, the joint statement of the case, a joint set of proposed jury instructions, any special verdict form, deposition designations and the trial brief); and the courtroom jury and bench trial rules and trial orders, given as notice under CCP 177.5.
No judge-scoped deadlines on this tab. Deadlines are extracted only when the source rule text states them — we never infer or calculate dates the rule does not explicitly contain.
Timing shown here is quoted from the rule text. Compute your actual date against the court's calendar and the rule itself — not legal advice.
No verified ruling summary yet. BenchPath generates ruling summaries from opinion and docket corpora (CourtListener where covered) and publishes them only after human review — fabricated judicial analytics are exactly what this platform refuses to ship.
Use the live case-law search below to see what exists for this judge today.
Answer three quick questions. The platform pulls Kory E. Mathewson's full public case-law record from the source, newest first — your matter never narrows the pull; it directs the relevance ranking and the dual-AI analysis. Every hit comes back Bluebook-cited with the opinion's own words quoted verbatim. The scan takes the time precision takes.
