Impossible to answer really. I must say, none of what you are describing would be a reason most of the judges im the counties I practice in woyld continue a case for. But, if this is the first listing, youve showed up for everything, and are likely pleading, you have a shot. Hopefully, you have an attorney. Especially if this is your first criminal case. Really they would be in the beat position to answer theae types of questions.
