Hello, I am due in court tomororw (Tues) for a very serious family law matter. I got word at 5.30pm today that my barrister has walked away from my case and won't be there because she will be doing a high court case instead (i.e. more money for her than a circuit court case like mine). This is devestating for my case that I have no barrister in the morning to attend my case. What are my options?
It is a Motion Hearing, and the matter is urgent, so I am not sure if an adjournment is possible, especially when courts are due to close end July.
Please please please can anybody tell me what my options are? I don't trust that my solicitor will tell me the truth when we meet in the morning about what my options are.
My positoin is that I don't have legal representation in a barrister my case is seriously damaged. WIll a judge accept this, or will he think "tough luck, next time chose a more reliable barrister".
Please advise.
Thanks ... am desperate.
