Civil, Probate, and Family Matters Remote appearances are generally authorized pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure §§ 367.75, 367.76, and California Rules of Court (CRC) 3.670 and 3.672. If you are represented by an attorney, contact your attorney before requesting a remote appearance. Judicial approval is required for all remote appearances except Case Management Conferences and Law & Motion matters, which are preapproved pursuant to Butte County Superior Court, Local Rule 1.10(D)(1). In some instances, the judicial officer may grant remote appearances for the duration of a case. Even if such notice or waiver applies, a new CourtCall meeting link is required for each hearing. The platform divides users into two groups – “parties” and “Ad hoc participants.” Parties, for purposes of the remote appearance platform, include individuals or entities listed in the court’s official record (including attorneys, businesses, etc.). Ad hoc participants, for purposes of the remote appearance platform, include anyone not listed as a party in the court’s official record, such as witnesses, interpreters, court reporters, victims, or agencies (county, state, federal, hospitals, etc.). Scheduling instructions for both groups are provided below. Regardless of the scheduling process, judicial approval is required before appearing in court remotely. All remote appearance requests must comply with the noticing requirements outlined below. Notice to parties must be provided for every hearing unless a notice for remote appearances for the duration of a case or a waiver of notice by stipulation has been made, pursuant to CRC, Rule 3.672(f). Request and Notice Process To request a video appearance via CourtCall, the following requirements must be met: File and serve a Notice of Remote Appearance (RA-010) within the following timelines: For all hearings, except evidentiary hearings or small claims trials: at least five (5) court days before the hearing. For evidentiary hearings or small claims trials: at least ten (10) court days before the hearing. In response, the other party(ies) may file and serve an Opposition to Remote Proceedings at Evidentiary Hearing or Trial (RA-015) at least five (5) court days before the proceeding. The requestor should also file a proposed Order Regarding Remote Appearance (RA-020) with the court along with the RA-010. The court will notify the requestor if the remote appearance is approved or denied. If approved, parties will be required to schedule themselves for remote appearances. Ad hoc participants who are approved for a remote appearance must contact the court so they can schedule the remote appearance. Scheduling for a Remote Appearance after Approval Parties who need to schedule their own remote appearance can do so by visiting CourtCall’s Remote Court Scheduler (RCS) website. Ad hoc participants who need the court to schedule their remote appearance can do so by calling the appropriate case-type division at the court for assistance.

Reviewer note: Composed 2026-10-10 (California T4 Butte build 2026-10-10) from BenchPath custody ca/t4/ca-butte/pages/online-services__remote-appearances__civil-probate-and-family-matters.html (the page as fetched 2026-10-10; 624171 bytes, sha256 889299ef95b705a39a9fc4ad02869063c717733896685ff75647462ffb9d486d) with the Orange HTML composer (compose-site.py, the Judicial Council theme's area): the article's content sections (section.jcc-section), news bodies (div.jcc-news-full) and title banners (div.jcc-hero; the first banner's heading, the page title, is chrome) - the site header, menus, breadcrumb and footer lie outside them; each block starts a line and each table cell is set on its own line; chrome removed: none; proof (the multiset of non-space characters equals the containers' text less chrome and scripts) passes. Review note: The page says Case Management Conferences and Law & Motion matters are preapproved pursuant to “Local Rule 1.10(D)(1)”; Rule 1.10 as effective July 1, 2026 (carded) authorizes telephonic appearances - not video - without form RA-010 in all non-evidentiary civil, probate and family law matters (1.10(E)(1)(a)), and its subdivision (D) concerns the remote appearance platform (the review task on Rule 1's card).
