If you need to file or oppose a regular motion, motion to compel, ex parte application, motion for summary judgment or motion for summary adjudication in California, Litigation By The Numbers® will be a very handy tool!  Many of the procedures in California are governed by as many as three separate sets of statutes and rules -- California Code of Civil Procedure, California Rules of Court, and local rules.  Litigation By The Numbers® puts them in one logical place, so you can find and follow them. For example, the Motions chapter combines the Code of Civil Procedure, California Rules of Court, and local rules to answer the following: How much notice do I have to give for my motion?  When is the opposition due?  When is the reply due?  Do the time limitations change if I serve by mail? How do I file and serve a motion, opposition, or reply? When is a good faith declaration required for my motion? When is a separate statement required for my motion? When is a table of authorities required? When is a summary of argument required? How many pages can my points and authorities be, and how do I get permission to exceed that limit? Can I make a telephonic appearance or do I have to appear in person? Click here for excerpts from Motions.
