Source of truth

The moving party is responsible for requesting the appropriate amount of hearing time. Parties should presume that each side will be given an equal amount of time. If motions from multiple parties are set during the same hearing time, each moving party is responsible for requesting the appropriate amount of time. If there is a concern that a hearing may exceed the allotted time, either party may request for the Court to allot an equal amount of time to each party at the beginning of the hearing, or the Court may distribute time sua sponte. Parties will be responsible for presenting the entirety of their argument and presentation of evidence within their allotted time.
