The California Court of Appeal has issued an emergency order extending all time periods specified by the California Rules of Court that occur between April 20, 2020 and May 18, 2020 by 30 days. This means that deadlines for court-related activities will be extended for 30 days, without the need to apply for an extension. The Court retains the discretion to disallow an extension of time or to order that an action be taken within a specified time frame. This order is effective immediately.
