Local Rules of Court
RULE 18 - Notice of Settlement
Upon notice of settlement of any civil case, including cases on the small claims or forcible entry and detainer docket, may be grounds to continue a pretrial conference. Unless otherwise ordered by the court, a notice of settlement is not grounds to continue a trial or other evidentiary hearing. Final settlement, by agreed judgment entry, dismissal or other, must be fully executed and filed with the court prior to the date of the hearing or trial.
