As amended through January 17, 2024
Rule 8.015 - RESETS IN DOMESTIC RELATIONS CASES(1) Requests for reset of domestic relations cases, other than those made pursuant to SLR 8.013(8) at the status conference, shall be made in writing to the judge responsible for the case after consulting or attempting to consult with all affected parties and counsel. The requesting party shall inform the court of the approximate length of continuance requested, the position of the opposing party, the unavailable dates of the requesting party, and the unavailable dates of the responding party, if known. If this information is not provided in the declaration the court may deny the motion or set trial dates without consultation with counsel. A certificate of service shall be attached including the date, time and manner of service on the opposing party, the party's attorney, or that no service was made, if appropriate. When service is required, it must be completed at least 24 hours prior to the ex parte appearance except for 5 day contested hearings in Family Abuse Prevention Act cases. See Form SLR 8.015.(2) If a stipulated reset is filed and, if granted, would result in exceeding statutory timeframes for holding certain hearings (e.g., request for hearing on immediate danger order, enforcement of parenting time, request for hearing on issuance of protective order) the proposed order shall include an express waiver by the party entitled to the statutory timeframe for good cause.Amended effective 2/1/2024.
