Reviewer note: Page sha256: 83340cc2e1fc5a0db7a3082d6204f47c47ee4c8c12b486a5b53a0080a95e3393. Corpus topic: remote_virtual_platform. Published during the completeness pass — the 2026-07-24 arbitration verified this circuit but published 14 rules against 6,388 verbatim requirements.
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).
