(1) The assigned Judge is unavailable and an emergency requires prompt action; or
 
 
(2) An order is necessary before an action or proceeding can be filed.
 
(c) Unavailable.
For purposes of this rule, a Judge is unavailable if the Judge has filed a certificate of unavailability or such unavailability is certified by the Judge's courtroom deputy, law clerk, judicial assistant or secretary.
