§ 21503. Hearing; Setting Time.

The motion for a new trial shall be heard and determined by the judge

who presided at the trial. Upon expiration of the time to file counter-

affidavits, the clerk shall forthwith call the motion to the attention of the

judge who presided at the trial, or the judge acting in his place as the case

may be, and such judge thereupon shall designate the time for oral argument,

if any, to be had on said motion. Five days' notice shall be given of such oral

argument, if any, by the clerk to the respective parties. Such motion, if heard

by a judge other than the trial judge, shall be argued orally or shall be

submitted without oral argument as the judge may direct, not later than ten

days before the expiration of the time within which the court has power to

pass on the same.
