Ex parte in CV-E is strictly for uncontested matters resolvable in five minutes or less, held 9:00–10:00 a.m. on posted dates (website and outside Hearing Room 739). In-person, telephonic, Zoom, and hybrid appearances are permitted under Rule 2.530.
Judge Wallace's Uniform Motion Calendar takes only non-evidentiary motions, capped at ten minutes per case (five per side) — and the ten minutes includes the judge's time reviewing your papers. Set at least one week ahead; first-come, first-served in Hearing Room 743.
Telephone appearances in CV-D require counsel to arrange a single conference call joining all participants and to courtesy-copy the Notice of Hearing to the JA; the JA prepares the first trial order, but every amended trial order falls on plaintiff's counsel.
