Judge Gambardella’s March 18, 2020 Calendar and Judge Papalia’s March 19, 2020 Chapter 13 Calendar.

 

In an effort to limit physical appearances to the greatest extent possible, the Court requests that all parties (both represented and pro se) proceed in according with the following guidelines:

 

  1. With regard to all pending, contested matters, the Court encourages all parties to attempt to resolve or adjourn their matters in advance of the hearing.

 

  1. If there is a compelling reason for hearing a contested matter on March 18, 2020 (as to Judge Gambardella) or March 19, 2020 (as to Judge Papalia), the Court strongly encourages all parties to appear by telephone.  Arrangements may be made to participate by phone by contacting Court Solutions (www.court-solutions.com or 917-746-7476) or Court Call (courtcall.com or 310-342-0888 or 888-882-6878).  Court Solutions and Court Call are outside services that charge a fee for a telephonic appearance, but pro se parties may request a waiver of that fee.

 

  1. This is a fluid and evolving situation, so parties should consult the Court’s website for the latest information.
