LR 3. SUMMARY JUDGMENT AND OTHER SPECIAL SETTINGS

(a)  Special Settings. Summary Judgment hearings and all
  matters requiring more than ten minutes per side to argue
  must be specially set by written notice. Such hearings may
  be arranged by contacting the court administrator or bailiff
  (509-422-7130). Matters requiring less than ten minutes per
  side may generally be placed on the appropriate law and
  motion calendar.

(b)  Telephonic hearings. Telephonic hearings are authorized
  for most matters other than trial if stipulated by the
  parties. The record of such hearings will be made by tape
  recording. In order to avoid technical difficulties, the
  party initiating a telephonic conference or hearing must
  utilize a conference service provided by an operator or
  telephone company. The use of in-office conferencing
  equipment is not authorized.
