Courtroom Technology

Counsel are encouraged to make an appointment with the courtroom deputy prior to
a trial or hearing to become familiar with the availability, operation, and
compatibility of the courtroom technology systems should they wish to use them.
Failure to do so may result in the parties equipment not being available for use
due to incompatibility with the courtroom system.

Miscellaneous

When filing motions with the clerk, it is not necessary to provide separate
courtesy copies for the judge. There are two exceptions to this policy. The
court requires mailing or delivery of a paper copy of all summary judgment
motions, memoranda, and exhibits (including deposition transcripts), marked
"Courtesy Copy for Judge Antoon,” within five days of electronic filing. If a
party files a motion in open court, a copy should be provided to the judge for
his review.

Multiple motions in limine are not favored. All requests to limit evidence must
be included in a single motion not exceeding 25 pages without leave of court.
Responses are limited to 20 pages unless the court gives leave to exceed the
limit.

Mediation is required in most cases and should be completed at least five months
prior to the trial term. The parties may stipulate to a mediator in their case
management report (link is external). If they do not, the court will appoint one
from its list of certified mediators.

Pretrial Conference

The court will notify the parties by separate notice of the pretrial conference
date, normally the last week of the month before the trial term. The court will
hear motions in limine and address any objections to exhibits and witnesses.
Counsel should be prepared to address all pretrial matters.

Scheduling

The parties must file the case management report (link is external), using the
standard form on the court’s website, in compliance with the parameters set
forth Local Rule 3.02(b). After submission of the case management report, the
court will issue a scheduling order. Certain cases are exempt from filing a case
management report as set forth in Local Rule 3.02(d).

The court will not conduct a preliminary pretrial conference unless the parties
request one or the court deems it necessary.

Trial

The court will distribute a trial calendar to all counsel and pro se parties for
the upcoming trial term about two weeks before the beginning of the term.
Normally, criminal cases are tried first, civil jury trials are called up next,
and civil non-jury trials are tried last. Cases are listed in the order in which
they will be tried, although experience indicates that at times cases might be
called out of order. Civil cases not reached during this trial term will be
placed at the beginning of the following month’s trial term after all criminal
cases have been tried. For the convenience of counsel, the court provides the
names and telephone numbers of all counsel so counsel may keep themselves
informed of the progress of the cases listed before theirs.

Counsel and their witnesses must be available for trial on 24 hours' notice.

Counsel must advise the court promptly of any development after entry of the
trial calendar that could affect the trial of the case. Changes of pleas must be
entered with the magistrate judge assigned to the case by the last day of the
month before the trial term. If a defendant does not plead guilty before then,
he or she will be required to plead to the indictment without regard to any
agreement with the government. In civil jury cases, if the court is not notified
of settlement before a jury is called, the court will assess jury costs to the
parties.

The court will conduct the jury voir dire, giving due consideration to questions
proposed by the parties. The court may permit counsel to briefly supplement the
court’s voir dire examination.

The court will normally be in session from 9:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. each day
with one hour and 15 minutes for lunch. However, this schedule might change as
circumstances require.

Counsel, parties, and witnesses appearing in court must dress appropriately. Men
must wear a coat and tie.

Parties who want to use the court’s evidence presentation equipment (i.e., DOAR
equipment, easel, chalkboard, etc.) should advise the courtroom deputy at (407)
835-4204 as soon as possible before beginning of trial. They should also make
arrangements to familiarize themselves with the operation of the equipment prior
to trial.
