Either file a pro-se Motion for Continuance with the court; or retain a lawyer to get the matter continued, and represent you in the matter of the Protection Order. The materials you will need to prepare and file the motion can be found at the county law library.

The previous answer is correct, but you need to realize that the judge does not have to grant the motion for continuance.
