Motion Practice

In-court motion hearings have been suspended by General Order 20-0012, as amended. Motions are not to be noticed for presentment in court. If a hearing is required on a motion, the court will set it, and it will be conducted by telephone or video conference. In-person hearings are limited to matters that, by law, must be conducted in person.

Joint, uncontested, and agreed motions should be so identified in the title and the body of a motion.

If a motion has not been addressed by either a ruling or the setting of a briefing schedule within a reasonable time after filing of the motion, counsel may call Judge Kennelly's courtroom deputy clerk to inquire.

Under General Order 20-0012, as amended, courtesy copies need not be submitted. If a courtesy copy is needed, such as for a very large filing, Judge Kennelly's chambers will contact counsel to request one. If a courtesy copy is requested, it should be spiral bound on the side, and any exhibits should be tabbed.
