THE PRACTICE said:My response:
WRONG! Absolutely, wrong. "Notice" of an Ex-Parte hearing is given by telephone or fax at least 24 hours in advance of the hearing time, and then, you must Declare in your attached Declaration that such Notice was given, and the method, and by whom, and to whom it was give, along with the date and time of the Notice. Then, a copy of the Ex-Parte Application and Motion must be mailed to the opposing party, along with a copy to be served at the Hearing.

I am curious about this because in Alabama there is no such thing as an exparte hearing...if one party goes before the judge without the other party it is considered exparte under what one would consider the normal definition of exparte (w/o a hearing). If you get the order there is no hearing and no notice to the other side. Yeah I know dufus state well behind the times, none the less how can California have a provision requiring notice of hearing to the other party (that is not supposed to be heard) prior to the judge's ruling.. I am sure I am not making sense, but I am really confused.
