Judge Wright's division procedures draw a bright line: hearings set for 30 minutes or less are held via Zoom; hearings over 30 minutes are in person at the courthouse of the case's county. A party seeking remote appearance for a longer hearing must file a Motion to Appear Remotely with a proposed order via the E-Filing Portal no less than 7 days before the hearing.

Most hearings set for 30 minutes or less are conducted by Zoom in CV-A; the setting order/notice prevails. Telephonic appearance is allowed if opposing counsel doesn't object — request it when scheduling.
In CV-B the parties agree whether attendance is Zoom or in person; hybrid is permitted, and the Notice of Hearing must state Hearing Room 701 with the division's published Zoom ID (275-150-7351).
In CV-C, appearing by Zoom is a privilege (log in five minutes early; Court hosts); presenting testimony remotely — any hearing or non-jury trial, any length — requires a written motion showing good cause under Rule 2.530(b)(2).
