Does anyone know what these terms mean on a divorce court register? "At-Issue +2hrs" (listed under register of court events) and "TRIAL SETTING CONFERENCE"(listed under court hearings)? These are shown under case information. Thanks for any info!

For those who don't know I believe it means the issue is set for trial and 2+ court hours have been set aside for the matter. Was that what you found?

Well, I looked at the glossary, too, and called the court. She told me "At-Issue+2" meant on that particular day there were attorney issues that had lasted 2+ hours (on one spouses side) and then the same, but longer the following day for the other spouse's attorney) and was ready for trial. And, "Trial setting conference' means there was a conference between the two sides set in a trial setting. She said this means the divorce 'could' be settled that day, although more likely to take anywheres between another week, to months, to even as long as a year, to finalize.
