Rule 23. Evidentiary Hearing
(a) Definition. An “evidentiary hearing” is a court event held after an initial hearing at which the parties present evidence for a determination of factual issues. An evidentiary hearing includes a trial.
(b) Setting of an Evidentiary Hearing. If the court does not decide at the initial hearing all the issues raised in a petition, the court may set an evidentiary hearing on the remaining issues.
(c) Notice of an Evidentiary Hearing. Unless the court orders otherwise, the court must notify the parties of the date, time, and place of an evidentiary hearing, but it is not required to provide notice to an interested person unless the interested person has filed a demand for notice.
(d) Procedure at an Evidentiary Hearing. To the extent not inconsistent with these rules or A.R.S. Title 14, the Civil Rules governing trial procedures apply to evidentiary hearings in probate proceedings.
