What should I do if I can't make it to a hearing?

If you know you are going to be late for a hearing, call the court and tell them when you expect to arrive. If you know ahead of time that you will be unable to attend a scheduled hearing and need to request a continuance, you must do so in writing, and you must notify the opposing party of your intention to request a continuance. Phone calls for continuances are not accepted unless it is an emergency situation.
