AO 3.010 (Order Adopting and Implementing the Civil Differentiated Case Management Plan), effective January 1, 2025, expressly rescinded the prior plan AO 2.072/21-1. It requires the PRESIDING JUDGE — not counsel — to review each covered civil case and assign it to the complex, streamlined, or general track by entering an initial case-management order within 120 days after commencement. Streamlined cases project trial at 310 days from filing; general cases at 480 days.
