We have a set hearing for custody modification by request of other parent. Recently we received a notification from our child's school that an end of year "graduation parade" (kindergarten) will take place on the same day as our set hearing. I immediately reached out to the opposing party attorney (I am self represented) asking if they are in agreement to continue the hearing so that both of us can attend the event, they never responded. I filed a request for request to reschedule the hearing with the court and attached a copy of the scheduled school event and correspondence with attorney requesting the court consider rescheduling the hearing so that we both can attend our child's school event. The request was denied stating that "No agreement from the moving party".
Is our child's school event not a show for "good cause" to continue the hearing? Thank you in advance!
