LANDLORD TENANT -- CONCLUSION OF MANDATORY CASE
MANAGEMENT CONFERENCES & CONTINUATION OF OTHER
LANDLORD TENANT REFORMS

The Supreme Court in the attached July 14, 2023 Order has refined certain aspects of the landlord tenant reforms that it authorized in 2021. Effective September 1, 2023, mandatory case management conferences will
conclude. As of that same date, landlords will be required to file the Certification of Lease and Registration Statement and the Landlord Case Information Statement with the complaint.

The Court's Order reinforces the continuation of other landlord tenant reforms designed to support fairness for all parties, including the availability of trained neutrals to facilitate conferences on the date of trial and potential
adjournments of trial dates for up to 60 days if a party provides documentation of a pending application for rental assistance.

Questions about this notice and the Court's July 14, 2023 Order should be directed to the Civil Practice Division at (609) 815-2900 x54900.
