New San Francisco Division Procedures for Noticing and Conducting Hearings
Judges Montali and Blumenstiel will soon permit in-person and remote appearances at certain calendars. Judge Montali will begin this practice on May 23, 2025; Judge Blumenstiel will begin this practice on August 1, 2025.
The San Francisco Division has issued revised Procedures for Noticing and Conducting Hearings, which identify the affected calendars and explain how hearings should be noticed. These revised Procedures are now available here on the court’s website.
Please review the new Procedures. If you have questions, please contact the relevant Judge’s chambers. We look forward to seeing you soon.
