An Illinois Motion to Continue is a legal procedure that is used in Illinois courts to postpone or “continue” a trial date. There are three types of Illinois Motion to Continue: 1) Non-Jury; 2) Jury; and 3) Joint Motion. A Non-Jury Motion to Continue is typically filed by the parties when both sides agree to postpone the trial date. A Jury Motion to Continue is filed when a jury is needed for the trial and the parties agree to postpone the trial date. A Joint Motion to Continue is filed when both parties jointly agree to postpone the trial date, regardless of whether a jury is needed. In all cases, the Motion must be accompanied by an affidavit setting forth the reasons why the parties are asking for a continuance.
