Can a motion to suppress be heard on the same date as the motion to grant a continuance?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Ferrer, 108 Cal.Rptr.3d 908, 184 Cal.App.4th 873 (Cal. App. 2010):

Relying primarily on People v. Henderson (2004) 115 Cal.App.4th 922, 9 Cal.Rptr.3d 655 ( Henderson ), the People contend the trial court lacked authority to deny the request for a continuance and grant the motion to suppress, where there was adequate time for the motion to be heard on another date before trial.
