READ CIRCUIT AND CHANCERY COURT ORDERS REGARDING ALL MOTIONS (PDF Format)

Per LRCP 6.02, motion docket will resume in Part 1 in January of 2023 at 1:30 p.m. Because of the first and third Mondays of January are holidays, motion docket will be held on Tuesday, January 3, 2023 and Tuesday, January 17, 2023.

Beginning in February 2023 and forward, Part 1 will resume motion docket on the first and third Mondays of the month.

Due to repeated technical difficulties, motion docket will be in-person in the courtroom only. If a virtual hearing is required (the necessity of which is to be determined by the Chancellor) the case must be specially set.

Dispositive motions, such as motions for summary judgment and motions to dismiss, as well as motion for contempt and motions for APL will not be heard at motion docket. Rather those motions will only be set for a later hearing at Monday docket call.
