Emergency Motions

Emergency matters must be of such a nature that a delay in hearing them would cause serious harm.  In the event a party seeks to present an emergency motion, that party must inform the Courtroom Deputy prior to filing the motion of the general nature of the motion and the reason that it requires emergency treatment, so that it can be determined if emergency treatment is appropriate.  A party seeking to present an emergency motion must make all reasonable efforts to provide the opposing party with actual notice of the motion and to ascertain whether there will be any objection to the motion.
