1. Medical condition; 2. Significant changes in the circumstances; 3. Scheduling conflict. 4. Lack of preparation. You must request a continuance at least 5 business days prior to the hearing (if you are doing this in writing); if you are planning to just call, you can do so no later than 2 days prior to the hearing.
Some of the reasons that might necessitate a continuance include: You need additional time to secure an attorney to represent you in court. You need more time to gather evidence because the other side has been stalling on discovery requests. You need more time to locate witnesses who are critical to your case.
A common claim for a continuance is the need of time to get a lawyer. If the case has been in litigation for some time or if a continuance has been granted before, the court may deny the request. When requesting a continuance to get a lawyer, it is important to show to the court the efforts made to get a lawyer.

Continuance Without a Finding (CWOF) is common in cases where the evidence supports a guilty finding. This is when the defendant acknowledges guilt for pleading purposes, but the court does not enter a guilty finding. Instead, it continues the case which will be dismissed upon completion of certain conditions.
Rescheduling. If you wish to request a reset or rescheduled court date, you will need to contact the Municipal Court Clerk's Office at least two (2) business days in advance of your court date. You may reach the Municipal Court Clerk's Office at 706-613-3690; however, email communication is preferred.
Only certain very limited types of contracts can be canceled, within three business days after signing. When it is applicable under the law, this three-day cancellation or “cooling-off” period is designed to give you time to think about your decision and to compare the prices and quality of competing products.
