Description
APPLICATION FOR CONTINUANCE. This form is used in the Court of Common Pleas of Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. It is a request by the defendant's attorney to delay or reschedule a court event in a criminal case. It requires a reason for the delay, information on whether the case is consolidated with others, and consent from the prosecution. The defendant must waive their rights under Pennsylvania Rule of Criminal Procedure 600, which ensures a trial within 365 days and limits pre-trial incarceration to 180 days. The judge will then decide whether to grant or deny the continuance. www.FormsWorkflow.com
