Hello Will:

I understand that you have a medical malpractice case pending and that you cannot find an attorney to represent you. You said that you just want advice--what can I do to help?

WHAT PAPERS/MOTION DO IFILE TO CONTINUE THE CASE. WHATS NEXT??

Expert:  RJ replied 2 years ago.

Make sure a complaint has been filed with the local courthouse. If you have a trial date and need a continuance, filed a motion for continuance. If a complaint has been filed and there is no trial date, you just need to make sure the defendant files an answer. Go to the courthouse and check the case file. The clerk should be able to help you. Good luck and remember to press accept so that I may get credit.
