AO 3.010 imposes no at-filing form on counsel, but once service is obtained the plaintiff's attorney must serve a copy of the case-management order on each defendant, and must serve any new party within five days of service of pleadings on that party.
All covered civil cases. There is NO requirement to file a proposed case-management order simultaneously with the complaint in the 16th.
Plaintiff's attorney must serve a copy of the case management order on each Defendant once service is obtained, and further, must serve a copy on any new party to an action, within 5 days of service of pleadings on that party.

Judge Eckley-Moulder: when an unrepresented party is in the case, the lawyer presenting a post-hearing order must give the JA stamped, addressed envelopes for service; civil hearings default to Zoom, and cancellations MUST be confirmed by the JA.
