Page 6 | b. PROCEDURE FOR REMOTE APPEARANCES

The court typically initiates remote proceedings by emailing a calendar invitation to counsel or a self-represented litigant, with specified meeting information, subject to limits on forwarding the invitation.

The remote court proceeding will typically be initiated via an email calendar invitation sent to the attorney of record at the email address of record or to a self-represented litigant at his or her email address of record. Local Form 9000 may be used to update the court regarding contact information. The invitation will include a description of the meeting, the date and time, a link to the meeting, a meeting identification number and passcode. If a different attorney or limited scope attorney has been retained to appear, it is the responsibility of the handling attorney to forward the Zoom invitation to the appropriate attendee. Counsel may additionally forward the invitation to their own client to allow the client to observe the proceeding. Due to the difficulty, interruption and delay associated with managing multiple remote appearances, the Zoom invitation shall not be forwarded to any other persons. Other individuals who wish to observe a proceeding as a member of the public may also appear remotely upon request.
