N.C. R. Prac. Super. & Dist. Ct. 12.5
As amended through June 18, 2024
No case shall be continued beyond the sixty-day period except upon motion and order of the Chief District Court Judge. Any motions to continue must be made not less than ten days prior to the end of the sixty-day period, and no continuance shall be granted except upon a showing of good cause. Good cause shall not include "not ready or discovery not completed" since the purpose of this program is to resolve cases expeditiously without spending too much time or money on pretrial activity. No case shall be continued more than twenty days after the said sixty day deadline. Rescheduling of a case within the sixty-day period may be granted by consent or by order of the arbitration coordinator.
