Judge Immergut encourages parties to afford opportunities for junior attorneys and diverse attorneys to argue before the Court.

Courtroom Rules

• Mobile devices must be turned off before entering the courtroom and remain off during all proceedings, except for members of the trial team.

• No food or drink, except water, is allowed in the courtroom.
• All litigants should be dressed appropriately for court and should advise clients and witnesses to do the same to the extent possible, even if appearing remotely.
• Counsel should always stand when addressing the Court.
• Judge Immergut does not allow “questions in aid of objection” or re-cross.
• Judge Immergut does not allow questions from jurors during trial or read-backs of trial testimony from the court reporter.
