What does it mean motion to continue?

ANSWER: A motion for continuance is a request by a party to a case to reschedule a currently set court date. In the criminal context, a court date is an order to appear at a particular date and time (and place!) that is enforceable with the power of law.

What is a formal continuance?

A motion for a continuance is a request asking the judge to make an order changing your hearing date. If the judge grants your motion, your court date will be postponed to a later time. For most requests for continuances, you must provide the judge with a suitable reason (good cause) for postponing your court date.

What is a good reason to ask for a continuance?

Perhaps the most common reason for a continuance is when one side did not have enough time to investigate the case and analyze the evidence. Many defense attorneys, especially public defenders, can move only so quickly because they are representing many clients.

What is a good excuse to reschedule a court date?

A valid emergency can serve as an excuse for missing a court date. Some examples of legitimate emergencies include: An emergency room visit for a sudden, debilitating medical condition. A sick child.

How do you write a continuance letter?

When writing a request for a continuance, include your name, the case name and number, what you are requesting and why. State the date of the currently scheduled court hearing and clearly request a new date. Give the reasons for your request.
