California Superior Local Rules

section 68115, at the Court's request, California Supreme Court Chief Justice Tani Cantil-Sakauye has issued an Emergency Order permitting the closing of the Court's facilities to the public, with minimal exceptions, from March 17, 2020 through March 27, 2020. In addition, the Chief Justice issued an advisory on March 20, 2020 recommending the suspension of all family law trials, hearings, and proceedings for at least 60 days, with the exception of time-sensitive matters, such as restraining orders and urgent matters.

Therefore, all non-emergency Family Law trials, hearings, and proceedings shall be suspended through June 1, 2020, and all such matters currently scheduled to be heard on or before June 1, 2020 shall be set for a Status Conference scheduled to be heard after June 1, 2020. The Status Conference will be set by the Court prior to the next currently scheduled Hearing date. All such matters shall be trailed from their currently scheduled hearing date to the date of said Status Conference so that no matter will lose its retroactivity.

Although hearings may continue to display as calendared in the online case access system, no hearings other than emergency matters will be conducted during the closure period. IT IS SO ORDERED this 23rd day of March 2020, at Santa Ana California. _______________________ Kirk H. Nakamura Presiding Judge
