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?

Wednesday, October 21st, 2009Can An Attorney File A Lien On Property Without Notice Or Hearing?
Saturday, October 17th, 2009Can an attorney file a lien against my home, in Florida, if he says I owe him fees. I dispute that I owe him the fees. He will not go to arbitration through the Fl. Bar and they allow him to refuse. He is threatening to sue me civilly which is fine. But I am wondering if he can put a lien on my property without my knowledge or without some type of court hearing.
