Each court must adopt local rules on differential case management as provided in this chapter consistent with the rules on case management in chapter 3 of this division and standard 2.1 of the California Standards of Judicial Administration.
Every court in California sets its own local rules for managing cases. These local rules must follow the statewide guidelines for case management.
This means the process for handling your case may look a little different depending on which county court you are in. If you have a case filed in California, you should look up the local rules for that specific court to know what to expect.
