                                EDM-IRLJ 2.6(a)
                            SCHEDULING OF HEARINGS


    (1) Contested hearings will be scheduled upon the respondent's request
within the time limits provided by IRLJ 2.6(a).  If, at the same time the
respondent requests a contested hearing, the respondent also requests that
an electronic speed measuring device (SMD) expert be present at the
contested hearing, the court will set such hearing on the third Wednesday
of a calendar month.  If such a request is made subsequent to the
scheduling of the hearing on a day other than the third Wednesday of a
calendar month, the court will continue the hearing from the date first
set to a hearing on the third Wednesday in a calendar month and the period
between the date of the hearing originally set and the new hearing will be
excluded from the computation of the time-for-hearing requirements of IRLJ
2.6(a).  If the third Wednesday of a calendar month falls on a non-
judicial day, the court may direct that such hearings be set on another
day in the same calendar month.

    (2) There shall be no pre-hearing conferences unless properly noted and
approved by the Court.

    (3) If the respondent is also charged with a criminal offense arising out
of the same incident as that which gives rise to an alleged civil
infraction, the hearing on the infraction may be scheduled at the same
time as any hearing set for the criminal matter.
