(b) Any motion directed to the presiding judge under these rules.
(c) Any motion that may be submitted ex parte under Oregon Statute or rules.
(d) Stipulated or unopposed motions.
(2) All pretrial motions, including motions for summary judgment, will be considered on the fifth succeeding motion day after the motion is filed, unless otherwise ordered by the court. Upon written stipulation of counsel filed not later than the Thursday of the week preceding the day for consideration, the consideration may be continued to a later motion day. No motion may be continued more than once, nor additional time to file memoranda allowed, unless ordered by the court. When a party requests remote argument, the clerk will set a specific time for argument on the customary motion day docket.
(3) Motion Days
(a) Monday is motion day for civil motions. When Monday is a legal holiday, Tuesday will be motion day for civil motions.
(c) In cases where oral argument has been requested, argument is at 9:00 a.m. before the judge assigned to hear civil motions.
(4) The first sentence of every motion shall state whether the case is set for trial and if so, shall state the date.
(5) Except when a stipulation is filed pursuant to (1) above, a party moving to postpone or accelerate the consideration of civil motions including requests for expedited hearing, shall ascertain the position of all other parties regarding the postponement or acceleration, and shall include a statement of those positions in its motion. The statement shall also indicate whether the other parties wish to respond to the motion to postpone or accelerate. In the absence of such statement, the motion to postpone or accelerate will be denied and the matter considered in the normal course.
(6) A party moving to amend its pleadings shall ascertain the positions of all other parties regarding amendment, and, if the motion is unopposed, it shall so state in its heading. Unopposed motions to amend shall be immediately considered by the court. Opposed motions to amend shall be considered by the court in the normal course.
(7) Upon electronic filing of a motion, affidavit, and proposed order to disqualify a judge, the moving party must immediately notify the presiding judge's chambers of the filing.
