Under the restructured Rule 166a, the deadlines anchor to the MOTION'S FILING, not a noticed hearing: the response is due within 21 days after the motion is filed, any reply within 7 days after the response, the hearing or submission may not be set within 35 days of filing and must be set within 60 days (or 90 for docket need, good cause, or movant agreement), and each side must submit a proposed order before the hearing or submission date.
Rule 1.202 (October 1, 2026 edition): before filing a non-dispositive motion, the movant must confer with the opposing party in a good-faith effort to resolve the issues and include a certificate of conferral at the end of the motion, above the signature block. The rule does not apply when the movant or the nonmovant is unrepresented, lists fourteen kinds of motions that need no conferral, and allows sanctions for noncompliance.
Rule 1.510 (October 1, 2026 edition): the movant files and serves the motion consistent with any court-ordered deadlines and serves its supporting factual position when it files the motion. The nonmovant's response, with its supporting factual position, is due no later than 40 days after service of the motion. Any hearing must be set for a date at least 10 days after the response deadline, unless the parties stipulate or the court orders otherwise.
