Typically, theres no limit on the number of continuances that a defendant can request. That said, a judge wont look favorably on repeated requests, especially if they appear to be delay tactics. Repeated requests, made without good cause, will be denied. (The judge could also reprimand the lawyer.)
Court-appointed attorneys can usually request up to three resets, while private defense attorneys have the capacity to request one more, totaling four resets. After reaching these limits, any further reset requests need to go directly to the judge, requiring evident justification for the additional delay.
