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.
A continuance in child support or custody cases delays hearings, allowing more time to prepare or gather evidence. It can benefit the defendant by providing additional opportunity to address legal issues or negotiate settlements.
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.
Excessive or unjustified continuances can undermine your Sixth Amendment rights. Minnesota courts must balance delay requests with the constitutional guarantee of a timely trial. If a defendant remains in custody or suffers prejudice due to delay, a continuance may be denied or result in dismissed charges.
