[4] All evidence, motion records, and factums shall be filed with the court by delivering them as attachments to an email to the other parties and the Motions Coordinator in searchable PDF format. No Books of Authority or statutory materials are to be sent to the other parties or the Motions Coordinator.

[5] The hearing will be held by telephone conference call on a line arranged by the Motions Coordinator. The parties and the presiding judge may use videoconference technology (whether Skype or Microsoft Teams or otherwise) as may be available to them all and acceptable to the presiding judge.

a. The presiding judge may convene one or more case conferences and make all orders as he or she deems appropriate under Rule 53.10(6) to ensure the efficient hearing of the urgent application that is the subject of this endorsement; and

b. The outcome of the application whether conveyed in typed or handwritten format is an order of the court enforceable by law on the day it is made regardless of whether a formal order is signed or entered with the court;
