2.1 Except for legal holidays, and unless otherwise ordered by the Court, the regular Rule Days of the Forty-Third Circuit Court, Division I, shall be as follows:

2.2 In addition to regular Rule Days, the Court may, from time to time, set special hearing days to accommodate the state holiday schedule, the schedules of the Court or the parties, the caseload of the circuit, or other relevant considerations.

2.3 The Circuit Clerk of each county shall keep a Motion Docket and shall docket in order all motions assigned for hearing.

2.4 All motions, civil and criminal, except those that are permitted to be filed ex parte, shall be filed with the Clerk of the appropriate county and served on opposing counsel by delivery no later than closing time in the Clerk's office one week immediately preceding the Rule Day upon which the motion is to be heard. If service of the motion is by mail, an additional three (3) days' notice shall be required.

2.5 Any withdrawal or remand of motions or cancellation of hearings shall be made by the filing party directly to the Circuit Judge and to the Clerk and must be by agreement of all parties.

2.6 Parties may e-mail or fax motions to the Circuit Judge prior to the hearing date for informational purposes, but e-mailed or faxed motions shall not be recognized by the Court until the original is received and entered in the record by the appropriate Circuit Clerk. This Rule in no way precludes a party from filing motions in compliance with the e-filing system. Motions filed in compliance with the e-filing protocol shall be deemed properly filed.

2.7 Any party who receives a notice of possible dismissal pursuant to CR 77.02 shall strictly comply with the notice and with the terms of CR 77.02. Failure to do so may result in dismissal of the action without prejudice.
