Re: Hearing Continuation
You asked about obtaining a continuance.
Yes. You would need to make a formal request through the Prothonotary's office (Clerk). Generally continuances are granted by the prothonotary in the first instance. You should request consent to a continuance from the opposing party (through counsel if they are represented) before presenting your request to the prothonotary.
