If the parties plan to resolve the case by plea agreement, the parties may contact the Court to convert the Calendar Call to an in-person plea hearing.

No other substantive motions or requests will be heard on Calendar Call without specific permission from the Court.
Reviewer note: Document sha256: b042f24672bc21c475eb7925a8b690e52e1f75c0bc3e6efd3fcaad01a7ef4933. Corpus topic: REMOTE_ZOOM_POLICY. Published during the completeness pass — the audit found 2,753 verbatim requirements against 123 published rules.
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).
