   And Now, this 25th day of January 2001, in order to better utilize judicial resources and address problematic issues with the transportation of prisoners, it is hereby Ordered and Directed that Local Rule NCR-308 is amended as follows:

   The Attorney representing a defendant who is incarcerated is responsible for obtaining a Transportation Order to secure the defendant's appearance at a trial or hearing. If a defendant is unrepresented by Counsel or is proceeding Pro-Se, the District Attorney shall arrange for the transporting of the defendant for a trial or hearing.

   All transportation Orders must be filed with the Court and served upon the Sheriff of Northumberland County, a minimum of seven (7) working days prior to the scheduled date of hearing or trial when the defendant is incarcerated in an out of county facility. If the defendant is incarcerated in a facility located in the county, a minimum of forty-eight (48) hours notice is required. The transportation Order shall be in the same format as previously prescribed.

   The Northumberland County Court Administrator is Directed to file copies of this Order with the appropriate agencies.
