Trial order for Criminal Cases will be determined by evaluating speedy trial, defendants in custody, case age, retrials, or any other special considerations communicated to the Court.

- Subsequent trials will begin at 9:30 a.m. the day after the previous trial concludes (or jury deliberations begin). If the prior trial concludes in the morning, the next case (as determined during the Docket Sounding) should be prepared to select a jury the following day at 9:30 a.m. However, if the next case is ready to begin earlier, please contact the Division W Judicial Assistant.
