LCR 40

SCHEDULING CASES FOR TRIAL

(a) Orders by Court

The court may make such orders as may facilitate the prompt, inexpensive, and just disposition of any action.

(b) Responsibility of Attorney

Responsibility for the appearance of attorneys, parties and witnesses in court in readiness for trial is on the attorneys of record and is not on the clerk. Attorneys of record shall advise the clerk, upon request, regarding their readiness for trial, probable duration of trial, and such other matters within their knowledge as may facilitate the performance of the clerk's duties and the prompt trial of causes.
