The Registrar schedules trials. The Registrar will take your schedule as well as the other party’s schedule into account when assigning a trial date, but making the best use of the Court’s time must also be considered. Unless the court orders otherwise you need to accept the trial date you are given.
You cannot be assigned a trial date until after the Pre-Trial Conference is held.
If both parties agree, the parties may ask the Registrar to move the trial date as long as the trial is not scheduled to take more than 5 days. In all other cases only the court can change the trial date. If you need to change the date make an application to the court and explain your reasons in an affidavit.
