Order Setting Requirements For Evidentiary Hearing Chapter 13 (Long Form) (Judge Isicoff)

ORDER SETTING REQUIREMENTS FOR EVIDENTIARY HEARING AND ESTABLISHING RELATED DEADLINES. This form sets the procedures and deadlines for an evidentiary hearing in a bankruptcy case. It schedules the hearing, outlines the rules for submitting evidence, exchanging exhibits, filing witness lists, and preparing for the hearing. It also provides for the possibility of remote participation via Zoom and establishes guidelines for witness testimony, including how to file motions for remote testimony. The form prohibits unauthorized recording of the proceedings and mandates that parties must meet to resolve any objections to exhibits before the hearing. Additionally, it covers mediation possibilities, potential sanctions for non-compliance, and how parties can request a continuance if needed. If the case settles before the hearing, parties must notify the court, but if not, they should be prepared to proceed with the hearing. www.FormsWorkflow.com
