Courtroom Rules

• Mobile devices must be turned off before entering the courtroom.
• Please provide advance notice when you require teleconferencing, intend to utilize the courtroom's video displays, or have other presentation technology questions.
• Attorneys and parties should conduct themselves with decorum and manners. This is primarily for your own benefit: jurors, courtroom staff, and public observers consistently state that they prefer a civil and collegial relationship between opposing parties and counsel.

Judge's Copies

Judge Simon does not require paper courtesy copies of filings except for declarations over 100 pages, summary judgment exhibits (if voluminous), and trial documents. If a judge’s copy is required, please submit the copy double-sided and three-hole-punched.

For trial documents, please refer to the Trial Management Order.
