Ind. Marion Cnty. Civ. Local Rule LR49-TR5-203

A. Notice. When a motion requires notice, the serving of the copy of the motion upon the other

parties in the cause shall constitute notice of filing. If the motion requires a hearing or oral

argument, the Court shall set the time and place of hearing or argument on the motion. Except

for initial motions made pursuant to subsection D herein, all motions filed with the court shall

include a brief statement indicating whether opposing party(ies) object to or approve of the

granting of said motion.

B. Response. If the statement regarding the position of the opposing party(ies) required under

subsection A herein indicates that objection to the granting of said motion may ensue, said

objecting a party shall have 15 days from the date of filing to file a response to said motion.

C. Oral Arguments on Motions and Other Pleadings. When an oral argument is requested, the

request shall be by separate instrument and filed with the pleading to be argued. Any such oral

argument requested may be heard at the discretion of the Court, except for motions for summary

judgment which shall be set for hearing upon request of any party.

D. Enlargement of Time. Initial written motion for enlargement of time pursuant to Rule TR

6(B)(1) to respond to a claim shall be automatically allowed for an additional 30 days from the

original due date without a written order of the Court. Any motion filed pursuant to this rule shall

state the date when such a response is due and the date to which time is enlarged. The motion

must be filed on or before the original due date or this rule shall be inapplicable. All subsequent

Motions shall be so designated and will be granted only for good cause shown.

E. Tender of Orders. All motions must be accompanied by a proposed order. When a non-party is the subject of the proposed order’s distribution list, the filing party must tender to the

Court stamped envelopes addressed to that non-party.

F. CONTINUANCES for Infractions/Ordinance Violations. If a party desires to continue a

setting in a case involving only infractions and/or ordinance violations, the party shall file a

verified written motion stating in detail the reasons why the setting needs to be continued. Such

motion shall be filed at least ten (10) days prior to the setting that the party desires the Court to

continue.
