I'm trying to postpone. A civil. Landlord case. On July 10 th No one answers the phone or calls me back for 2 weeks now

Landlord tenant cases are usually tried immediately. Calling is not a solution because there is no record. A lawyer would likely have more luck in trying to schedule a short adjournment, but again, because these cases involve payment of rent (usually) they are hard to adjourn. You can call my office tomorrow for further info since I handle the Paterson courts. 973-246-9659.
