    Briefing- What is if used for and who is it intended for?
    At my last review hearing the judge set a trial date and told my lawyer to enter a proposed judgment in anticipation of the petitioner not being present since he was not present at that hearing. My lawyer then asked then asked the judge 'is it reasonable to assume a briefing is not necessary.' The judge then confirmed it was not necessary. Is the "briefing" referring to the trial or what took place at the hearing that day? Also, does that mean the briefing would go the judge or the other party if it was necessary? Thanks in advance.

    I met with my lawyer after the hearing, but I forgot to ask what that meant. Thanks again.

    Normally, "briefing" means a detailed memorandum for the judge (with a copy sent to the other party) explaining the applicable law and facts which would justify the action desired (in this case the proposed judgment).
