If more than one attorney represents a party, one attorney must be designated in the first pleading filed on behalf of that party as “Trial Attorney” or “T.A.”. This attorney need not be the attorney who personally signs pleadings. The designated trial attorney is responsible for the case. All notices and other communications will be directed to the designated trial attorney, or to local counsel if a visiting attorney is designated as trial attorney.

Designation of the trial attorney may be changed at any time by ex parte motion and order of the court. [Amended February 1, 2011]
