You should file an appropriate motion requesting a continuance with your reason to reschedule with the Clerk of Courts and with the State Attorney's office. You then should schedule a hearing prior to your court date with the Judge's Judicial assistant.
Begin with a formal salutation, such as "Dear Judge Last Name," and introduce yourself and your case. Clearly state your reasons for requesting a continuance and provide supporting evidence. Conclude your letter by expressing your gratitude and willingness to cooperate with the court's decision.
Writing Your Letter Search for a form letter. Some courts print off forms that you can use to request a hearing. Open a word processing document. Insert a salutation. Add a heading. Begin the letter with your request. Explain why you need the hearing. Provide a contact number. Sign the letter.
