The Court prefers video appearances, if possible, as it ensures it is easier to know
who is appearing at the hearing and being able to see the other parties reduces
interruptions and delays. Additionally, appearing by video increases the chance that the
Court can use features such as shared screens to show everyone exhibits or forms that may
be helpful for the hearing. However, no party shall be penalized for appearing by phone.
Whether parties appear by videoconference, phone, or a hybrid of the two, they should try
as much as possible to contact the court from an area with no background noise as noise
and echoes prevent the parties from hearing the proceedings in the courtroom and prevent
the court from making a good record of the proceedings. The parties are especially
discouraged from appearing virtually from an outdoor location.

NOTE: All court proceedings are recorded digitally and not by a court reporter.
Pursuant to Local Rule 2.22, if a party desires a court reporter for any proceeding in which a
court reporter is not mandated by Arizona Supreme Court Rule 30, the party must submit a
written request to the assigned judicial officer at least ten (10) judicial days in advance of the
hearing, and must pay the authorized fee to the Clerk of the Court at least two (2) judicial days
before the proceeding. The fee is $140 for a half-day and $280 for a full day.

11:04 a.m. Matter concludes.
