E.D.N.Y. Local Civil Rule 40.1
Trial Scheduling
Judges have discretion to schedule trials in light of the needs of their dockets. Each
district may adopt court-wide practices or procedures for trial scheduling in their
respective Division of Business Rules or through an administrative or standing
order. Scheduling must give priority to matters as required by federal statute.
For relevant historical context for this local rule, consult the Appendix of Committee Notes.
History
2024 COMMITTEE NOTE New Local Civil Rule 40.1 has been added, in the absence of any previous local rule on the subject, because Fed. R. Civ. P. 40 provides that “[e]ach court must provide by rule for scheduling trials.”
