A Message from Presiding Judge Robert Hight
J
ANNOUNCEMENT
udge Hight has two important reminders for all civil litigators. The first is to comply with the court’s Civil Trial Readiness Notification requirement:
Notifications shall be made from 10 court days before the trial date to 1:30 p.m. on the Thursday before the trial date.
Counsel shall notify the court of their readiness to begin their Long Cause Civil Trial and provide information as to the status of the case. Such notification shall be done electronically by completing the form provided on the court’s web page. Re-sending a submission will not overwrite any previously submitted information. All submissions will be read and considered.
Judge Hight also reminds all civil litigators to check the court’s web page for available trial dates before they stipulate to a trial continuance. For example, as of the last week of February 2015, the first available trial date was Monday, August 31, 2015. The court cannot grant a trial continuance – even if it is by stipulation – to any date before the first available trial date. To check available trial dates, go the court’s webpage at https://www.saccourt.ca.gov/civil/trial-setting.aspx.
