HEARINGS
A) Law Day/Submission Dockets:
All motions that are unopposed or not agreed to are set on the Court's Monday oral hearing docket. Please call the clerk at 832-927-2680 to set a hearing. Please do not request a hearing in your motion.
When passing a hearing, call the court clerk and all parties as soon as possible.
All Oral hearings are In-Person ONLY.
Submissions are Mondays at 8:00 AM with proper notice.
Motions for Summary Judgment are to be heard by Submission ONLY.
B) Emergency Hearings:
Parties must consult with each other about the matter (preferably lead attorney on the case to opposing lead attorney on the case). If both sides agree to an emergency hearing, call the court clerk to set up a conference, by phone, or in person with Judge Aston. If only one side thinks it is an emergency, file a motion for emergency hearing. If time is short and e-filing is impractical, please contact our court clerk for further instructions. Keep in mind that processing times for e-filing have shortened a great deal lately, so it is preferable to file your documents electronically and then bring the filing to the clerk's attention. If an emergency hearing is granted, the movant is responsible for providing proper notice of the hearing to all parties.
