This case is being considered for an upcoming oral argument calendar in Phoenix

 

Please review the Phoenix sitting dates for November 2021 and the 2 subsequent sitting months in that location at http://www.ca9.uscourts.gov/court_sessions.

09/05/2021 42 Notice of Oral Argument on Friday, November 19, 2021 – 09:00 A.M. – Ceremonial Ctrm Phoenix – Scheduled Location: Phoenix AZ.
The hearing time is the local time zone at the scheduled hearing location.View the Oral Argument Calendar for your case here.NOTE: Although your case is currently scheduled for oral argument, the panel may decide to submit the case on the briefs instead. See Fed. R. App. P. 34. Absent further order of the court, if the court does determine that oral argument is required in this case, you may have the option to appear in person at the Courthouse or remotely by video. Check here for updates on the status of reopening as the hearing date approaches. At this time, even when in person hearings resume, an election to appear remotely by video will not require a motion. The court expects and supports the fact that some attorneys and some judges will continue to appear remotely. If the panel determines that it will hold oral argument in your case, the Clerk’s Office will contact you directly at least two weeks before the set argument date to review any requirements for in person appearance or to make any necessary arrangements for remote appearance.Please note however that if you do elect to appear remotely, the court strongly prefers video over telephone appearance. Therefore, if you wish to appear remotely by telephone you will need to file a motion requesting permission to do so. 

Be sure to review the GUIDELINES for important information about your hearing, including when to be available (30 minutes before the hearing time) and when and how to submit additional citations (filing electronically as far in advance of the hearing as possible).

 

If you are the specific attorney or self-represented party who will be arguing, use the ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF HEARING NOTICE filing type in CM/ECF no later than 21 days before Friday, November 19, 2021. No form or other attachment is required. If you will not be arguing, do not file an acknowledgment of hearing notice.[12220805]. [21-15668] (KS) [Entered: 09/05/2021 06:14 AM]
