            Effect of Failure to Answer Calendar or Attend Pretrial.  Cases may be dismissed if parties fail to answer calendar call or fail to attend pretrial conference.

            Notify Court of Settlement.  In order to comply with Rule 4.10, U.S.C.R., please notify the court of all settlements.

            Copy of Motions to Judge.  The court does not know that motions are filed unless it receives a copy of the motion.  Attorneys are asked to be responsible for seeing that the court gets a copy of all motions and briefs.  Otherwise, motions will not be considered filed and will not be grounds for delay of a trial.  This is in accord with U.S.C.R. 6.1. 

            If you do not have access to the Internet and need a calendar, call Deputy Clerk, Leslie Posey, at 478-621-6518.  All other questions with regard to the calendar should be directed to my Law Clerk, Neil Edwards at 478-621-5805.
