Previously Scheduled Family Hearings and Trials During The COVID-19 Emergency

Pursuant to a prior notice dated April 29, 2020, with some exceptions, all trials and specially assigned hearings that were scheduled to start or continue on dates during May or June, 2020, were continued to dates to be determined later.

This notice is to inform you that similarly, with the exception of the hearings described below, all trials and specially assigned hearings that were scheduled to start or continue on dates on or after July 1, 2020, will be continued to dates to be determined later. Parties are neither required, nor encouraged, to file motions for continuance of any such trials or hearings. This Notice shall make any such motion for continuance unnecessary, and if filed, it will not be ruled on by the court.

This Notice does not apply to:

1. Hearings on applications for temporary restraining orders, or on the extension or alleged contempt thereof;

2. Hearings on applications for emergency orders of custody on which ex parte relief has been granted; or

3. Hearings and trials whose dates were set after the previous notice of April 29, 2020, or which are set after the date of this Notice, including but not limited to hearings and trials scheduled to proceed by remote means.

The Honorable Michael A. Albis
Chief Administrative Judge
Family Division
