§ 2-341. (a) Without leave of court. A party may file an amendment to a pleading without leave of court by the date set forth in a scheduling order or, if there is no scheduling order, no later than 30 days before a scheduled trial date.
You can file a motion to revise or vacate (cancel) the judgment in writing within 30 days after the date of the judgment. This motion is usually filed to correct clerical errors, or to vacate a judgment if you believe that you were not served with the court papers or were not notified of the court date.

If you want to file a motion, the process is generally something like this: You write your motion. You file your motion with the court clerk. The court clerk inserts the date and time your motion will be heard by the judge. You “serve” (mail) your motion to the other side.
If the hearing date is less than 18 days from the date of filing a Motion for Postponement, a Motion to Shorten Time is required. The hearing notice for the case indicates whether the case is to be held in-person, or remotely. If you wish to appear remotely a Motion for Remote Participation may be filed.
Steps Check if the court has blank motion forms. Some courts have "check the boxes" or "fill in the blank" motion forms. Create your caption. Title your motion. Draft the introductory paragraph to the body of the motion. Request relief. Lay out the applicable facts. Make your legal argument. Insert a signature block.

“On motion of a party, the court may order a joint trial for two or more defendants charged in separate charging documents if they are alleged to have participated in the same act or transaction or in the same series of acts or transactions constituting an offense or offenses.
