Municipal courts handle a wide range of cases that can have lasting effects on a persons life. Understanding what happens in these courts is important for anyone facing charges. Municipal court cases often include traffic violations, misdemeanors, and ordinance violations.
Continuance is what a court may grant to delay proceedings until a later date. Parties in a suit or the judge themselves may wish to have a continuance granted in order to prepare for proceedings.
A continuance changes the date of a court hearing or trial to a later date. You can ask a judge for a continuance by filing a motion for continuance.
MOTION FOR CONTINUANCE THIS MOTION IS NOT FOR PURPOSES OF DELAY, BUT IS MADE SO THAT JUSTICE MAY BE DONE. NOTICE OF THIS MOTION HAS BEEN SERVED ON THE OPPOSING PARTY, AND IF REPRESENTED BY COUNSEL, THE OPPOSING PARTYS ATTORNEY OF RECORD.
The judge may, however, deny a continuance if the judge determines that your lawyer had enough time to prepare and there were no surprise events. The judge can also deny the request if either the attorney from the prosecution or the defense causes the need for more time through negligence.
