The Court will grant a continuance of a trial date, hearing or deadline only for
good cause. When a party requests a continuance, that party must first meet and
confer with all other parties in an attempt to reach an agreement as to three (3)
possible non-consecutive dates to which the trial date, hearing or deadline may be
continued. If an agreement is reached, the moving party must specify the three (3)
possible non-consecutive dates within the motion to continue. If the parties cannot
reach an agreement, then each party must advise the Court of their suggested dates.
If no agreement to continue can be reached and the party requesting the
continuance is relying on the Speedy Trial Act, that party must provide the provision of
the Speedy Trial Act in its motion to continue.
