Judge Berger's guidance regarding telephone and zoom hearings have been updated. Counsel is encouraged to appear in person for the Chapter 13 dockets. If circumstances arise where counsel or parties are not able to appear in person, first attempt to obtain courtroom coverage for your cases. If no courtroom coverage is possible, phone participation is permitted yet discouraged. Out of area counsel and parties may appear telephonically. There is no need to contact the Clerk's Office prior to appearing by telephone. The instructions for appearing by phone are:

Dial: (877) 336-1839 or (636) 651-0008.  Participant Access Code: 9622640 #

Please review the updated guidelines here for all appearance requirements.
