When an attorney is required to attend more than one trial, hearing, or other proceeding before a court or commission having judicial or quasi-judicial functions, or both, at times that conflict so that the attorney cannot reasonably attend each appointment, the attorney may request the Chief Superior Judge to designate which appointment the attorney shall attend. The Chief Superior Judge shall designate the appointment the attorney shall attend and shall notify the presiding magistrate of each court and commission of the Justice’s or judge’s decision. The attorney shall be excused from attending at that time any proceedings other than the one designated by the Chief Superior Judge, and the other proceedings shall be rescheduled.
