Review note: The page says “Registration closes 15 minutes before the hearing time.”, while its FAQ says “Registration closes four hours before the hearing time.”; and among the family law hearings that require “Notice: 10 court days before the hearing.” on form RA-010 it lists “Domestic Violence and Gun Violence” and “Restraining Order Hearings and Trials”, while Rule 5.13.2, carded in Chapter 5, requires notice at least two (2) court days prior to a hearing on a petition for a domestic violence restraining order (a review task).
