Motions and Hearing Chart
Helpful resource that provides information on where motions and documents for General Civil/Law and Motion and CMP cases are filed and heard. The chart also provides information on when to file and when to notice as well as statutory references.
The procedures for the CMP program are the product of careful planning by a committee of judges, practicing attorneys, representatives of local bar associations, and court staff. Chapter 2 - Part Four of the Local Rules governs Sacramento County’s CMP program. In addition to the Local Rules, the court has developed an information packet designed to familiarize attorneys and parties representing themselves with the basics of the program.
The Sacramento program applies to all civil actions except for probate proceedings, domestic relations proceedings, juvenile court proceedings, unlawful detainer matters, and actions assigned to a single judge based on subject matter.
