California State Trial Courts
In the State of California, ex parte proceedings are available if notice if given before 10 a.m. the previous court day, or even shorter upon showing of emergency need. As most California courts hold law and motion hearings in the early morning, this notice is typically confirmed by facsimile although oral notice may be effective. Some courts have procedures to allow opponents to appear telephonically, while other courts do not allow any oral argument and only consider written papers.
