THE SUPERIOR COURT OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA IN AND FOR THE COUNTY OF LASSEN GENERAL ORDER 2026-07 TRAFFIC COURT TRIAL POSTPONEMENT REQUEST AND OBJECTION FORMS The following Traffic Court Trial procedure regarding requests for postponement of traffic court trials, and objections thereto, is hereby adopted effective July 10, 2026: A party requesting postponement of a Traffic Court Trial shall use local form LSC-TR-100 – Request for Postponement of Traffic Court Trial. The request must be filed with the Court at least fifteen (15) days prior to the scheduled Traffic Court Trial hearing date. If the request is not filed timely, it may be denied. The request must be served on the opposing party, and the Declaration of Service by Mail included with form LSC-TR-100 must be completed and filed with the Court. Failure to complete and file the required proof of service may result in denial of the request. A continuance will not be granted except upon a showing of good cause. It is advisable to include with the request for continuance a copy of any supporting documents, including but not limited to, plane ticket, doctor’s note, or relevant material. The requesting party must identify any dates they are unavailable and must waive time for trial, or continue to waive time for trial if a waiver has already been entered. The Court will consider the request as an ex parte application at the expiration of seven (7) days following completion of service. In the absence of a timely opposition, the Court may consider the application as unopposed. A party objecting to the postponement of a Traffic Court Trial shall use local form LSC-TR-101 – Objection to Postponement of Traffic Court Trial or the eDelivery version thereof available as a separate link within the Traffic section of the Local Forms page on the Court’s website, www.Lassen.Courts.CA.gov. The objection must be filed with or eDelivered to the Court within five (5) days from the date of service of the request. A copy of the objection must be served on the requesting party. If a timely objection is not filed, the Court may decide the request for postponement without further input from the opposing party. If the opposing party does not object to the postponement, but has dates of unavailability within the following two (2) months, the opposing party may use form LSC-TR-101 to notify the Court of those dates. The opposing party may also notify the Court by phone or in writing as soon as possible but not more than 5 days from the date of service of the request. Forms LSC-TR-100 and LSC-TR-101 are adopted for mandatory use and shall be made available on the Court’s website, www.Lassen.Courts.CA.gov, under Local Forms. This General Order is intended to be incorporated into the Local Rules of Court as Local Rule 2(M)(2) – Postponement of Traffic Court Trials, effective January 1, 2027. Upon successful incorporation into the Local Rules of Court, this General Order shall be deemed automatically rescinded and superseded by the local rule. This General Order does not preclude nor restrict the Court from adopting additional amendments to Traffic Court Trial procedures, whether by subsequent publication of amended procedures, adoption of revised local forms, or issuance of a future General Order.

Reviewer note: Composed 2026-10-12 (California T4 Lassen build 2026-10-12) from BenchPath custody ca/t4/ca-lassen/docs/general-orders/general-order-2026-07.pdf (378165 bytes, sha256 3a890e9a4b21bce7c66e7c8f6673762d27eb0fbac52a8a28ace6dae5d0daa7f8; 2 pages; a printed text layer) with the shared verbatim composer (v2 reflow): both pages composed, no chrome (the pages print no page numbers; the clerk's filing stamp on page 1 and the signature block on page 2 - the Presiding Judge's signature over the printed name and title - are images, not text, so the text ends at its date); 1 whitespace-only fix window (build/doc-fixes.json: the fifth paragraph rejoined where its second line opens with an en dash, “– Objection to Postponement of Traffic Court Trial”, which the reflow took for a list mark); proof 1 (whitespace-only) and proof 2 (same character multiset as the text layer minus chrome) pass. Review note: The order is to become Local Rule 2(M)(2) effective January 1, 2027 (Rule 2(M) of the book effective July 1, 2026 has only its paragraph (1), trial by declaration), and is then deemed rescinded and superseded; the review task on the proposed Local Rules of Court effective January 1, 2027, which the court posts for public comment (held), re-reads this card when those rules take effect. The signature block on page 2 - the Presiding Judge’s signature over the printed name Honorable Mark Nareau and the title Presiding Judge of the Lassen Superior Court - is an image, not text, so the card’s text ends at its date; the clerk’s filing stamp (July 10, 2026) is an image too.
