Calif. Courts Take a Step Toward Uniformity

We all like individuality, but when it comes to courts, individual rules make it much more difficult for lawyers to stay abreast of dozens of different procedures in courts where they practice.  There's good news, though, at least in California, according to J. Craig William's post.  He writes:

The appellate courts are enforcing the state mandate to keep procedure consistent.  Clients are grateful, too, even though they don't know it.  It is much less expensive to practice with one set of procedures than it is to research the rules every time you file something in a different county.  One set of rules is a small price to pay for sanity.

Couldn't have said it better.  And while we're at it, what local court rule is your greatest peeve?
