A 1050 motion to continue is a request in a criminal case to postpone a court date. The date could be for a pretrial matter or a trial.
A request for a continuance of any hearing should be made by written motion. Oral motions to continue are discouraged. The motion should set forth in detail the reasons for the request and, if appropriate, be supported by evidence.
A continuance can last as long as required to sort out the issue. Some lawyers may request several months to prepare for trial. A judge will allow a short time if the grounds for continuance were an illness. The court usually determines the appropriate time required to prepare for trial.
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.
Your continuance letter should explain your reasons and justification for the postponement. Start by briefly stating the reasons that led to your request. This should be followed by a more detailed explanation that provides evidence to support your claim.
