(4) Civil motions are reset by telephone or e-mail at the discretion of the court and the
court customarily provides written notice of the date.  On occasion civil motions will
be reset by the court.  At any reset conference, counsel will be prepared with their
respective calendars.

(5) When counsel participates in the setting of the date in court, by telephone, or email
a continuance will not be granted if the ground relied upon is that the court failed to
provide written notice.

(6) All pretrial motions and memoranda, including motions in limine, along with an
estimate of the duration of any necessary hearings related to pretrial issues, will be
submitted to the court and the opposing party or counsel not less than 21 days
before trial.  Pretrial motions will not be heard on the day of trial, unless the court
finds good cause to do so.
