Adjournment Policy - revised December 2016

• Late-requested and serial adjournments place a tremendous burden on chambers and increase the cost of litigation. Counsel are expected to adhere to this Court’s Adjournment Policy.
  • Requests for adjournment—made more than 72 hours before a scheduled hearing—will only be granted if the request is made by letter, satisfactorily explaining the reason for the requested adjournment, confirming that all affected parties consent, and filed in ECF more than 72 hours before the scheduled hearing.
  • Requests for adjournment—made less than 72 hours before a scheduled hearing—will not be granted absent extraordinary circumstances. Counsel believing that extraordinary circumstances exist must contact chambers [585-613-4250]. Absent sufficiently compelling circumstances, counsel for the party tardily seeking the adjournment will be required to appear at the scheduled hearing—and may be subject to the imposition of costs.
