Civil Litigation -
Case Management / Trial Setting

Northern California Civil Litigation Information

Most courts have procedures for shepherding cases through the court system. Courts also have goals for concluding cases within twelve to twenty-four months. While the case is pending, there may be one or more "Case Management Conferences" which are basically checkpoints during the litigation for the court and the parties to monitor the status of the case, and to help make sure the case will get resolved in a timely fashion. Usually, within six to nine months, there will be a "Trial Setting Conference" where the trial date is scheduled. Once that date is scheduled, various deadlines are set in accordance with the trial date, including deadlines for filing motions and completing discovery.
