FAQ
Q: What counts as "Good Cause" for an extension?
Courts usually look for reasons beyond your control, such as a heavy volume of discovery documents, witness unavailability, or unexpected personal emergencies. I draft the motion to highlight these factors clearly.
Q: Do I need a Stipulation from the other side first?
Often, yes. If the other party agrees, I can draft a "Stipulation and Proposed Order," which is much easier for the court to sign. If they refuse, I draft the "Contested Motion."
Q: Can you help with an "Ex Parte" application for an extension?
Yes. If your deadline is only a few days away, I can draft an emergency (Ex Parte) application to get the request in front of the judge immediately.
