Texas Request for Continuance

A request for a continuance in Texas involves submitting a written motion to the court, typically accompanied by a valid reason such as illness, scheduling conflicts, or the unavailability of a crucial witness, to delay a scheduled court hearing or trial. This written request, including case details, the reason for the continuance, and contact information, is filed with the court clerk, and copies must be served to all involved parties. The judge may schedule a hearing to consider the request, and if granted, a new date is provided for the proceeding, while denial requires proceeding as initially planned.
