Request a postponement in penal matters

Last updated October 15, 2020
RelatedMontréal municipal court

Do you want to request a postponement in penal matters? Here’s everything you need to know.

A request for a postponement or deferral of a hearing to a later date must be received 3 working days before the date of the hearing.

You will be notified if the prosecution consents or objects to your postponement request. If it objects to your request, you must appear before the tribunal on the day of the hearing.

All requests for postponement under articles 168, 169, 170 and 171 of the Highway Safety Code are excluded from this procedure and are the subject of a formal request in writing of postponement and desummoning of witnesses.

This service is free.
