Judges have broad discretion to grant or deny a continuance, but they dont do so without good reason.
The Disadvantages of Summary Judgment This can be a challenging standard to meet, as the court only requires a demonstration that the case may succeed, rather than proving its merits conclusively. It is important to note that the court has discretion when it comes to costs.
A continuance is a court-approved delay of a scheduled hearing or trial. Acceptable reasons often include illness, unavailability of key witnesses, new evidence discovery, or attorney scheduling conflicts. Courts require timely requests, usually in writing, explaining the reason and impact on the case.
