At the recommendation of the Bench-Bar Section of the Sonoma County Bar Association, the Sonoma County Superior Court has promulgated Sonoma County Local Rule 4.14 which became effective January 1, 2008. It established the Sonoma County Superior Court’s new Discovery Facilitator Program. It is anticipated that the new program will provide assistance in resolving discovery disputes, and help to reduce the backlog of matters on the Law & Motion Calendars in our various civil law departments. Any members of the Sonoma County Bar Association with ten years experience in civil litigation are encouraged to serve as facilitators.
If you are interested in serving, please send an email to Lewis Warren, the current chairperson of the Bench-Bar Section at lwarren@abbeylaw.com.
