MAP Q56: In civil cases, do you set time limits for counsel for opening statements, the presentation of evidence and/or closing arguments? If so, please describe your practice?

MAP A56: I try to keep opening statements to twenty minutes, closings to 30-45 minutes. These boundaries are flexible where the case is long or very complex.
