The other party’s attorney has delayed a court hearing for his client for an exparte twice now. He claims he has to appear for other cases.
How many times can he continue doing this? I got notice from him last Friday. Monday I called the court and they had already granted to him an extension without having to make a court appearance.
Can the other party keep doing this, to the point that the case is dismissed?
Also, what is his game plan here by continually delaying the case? If he gets the case dismissed in this manner, will I have to pay for the other party’s attorney fees?
