UTCR 1.080
FORMAT AND LOCATION OF COURT RULES
(1) All UTCR and SLR must include a table of contents.
(2) Each page of the SLR must include a footer that shows the following: the page
number, the revision date applicable to the set of SLR, the judicial district number,
and the name of the court.
(3) SLR shall be numbered as follows:
(a) SLR must be numbered as closely as possible to and in the same chapter as
related UTCR. As an example, if a court adopted SLR to carry out the
scheduling provisions of UTCR 7.010, an appropriate number would be
SLR 7.011.
(b) SLR numbers must fall between multiples of 10, for example, .015 or .021,
not .010, to ensure they do not use numbers reserved for UTCR, which use
only multiples of 10 for numbering.
(c) Specific SLR numbers required by the UTCR must be used, for example,
UTCR 1.160(2) (filing of documents); 3.180(11) (electronic recording and
writing); 6.200(4) (pretrial settlement conferences); and 13.010 (arbitration
proceedings.
(4) A court that wishes to have a chapter dedicated to alternative dispute resolution
(ADR) must use chapter 12 for all rules pertaining to the court’s ADR program.
The following chapter numbers are reserved for the placement of SLR related to
the subjects described for the chapter numbers:
(a) Chapter 12, SLR relating to mediation.
(b) Chapter 14, SLR relating to reference judges.
(c) Chapter 15, SLR relating to small claims.
(d) Chapter 16, SLR relating to violations.
(e) Chapter 17, SLR relating to local parking violations.
(f) Chapter 18, SLR relating to Forcible Entry and Detainer (FED) actions.
(g) Chapter 20, SLR relating to voluntary arbitration.
History
1991 Commentary: For purposes of UTCR 1.080(4) the committee did not intend that SLR required by UTCR 1.050(1)(c) be placed in chapter 1 but intended that such SLR be placed in chapter 7 or other chapters related to the particular subject.
