How have courts dealt with the issue of a motion for a continuance?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from People v. Leffel, 196 Cal.App.3d 1310, 242 Cal.Rptr. 456 (Cal. App. 1987):
The same type of contention was raised in People v. Valdivia (1960) 182 Cal.App.2d 145, 146-147, 5 Cal.Rptr. 832, and People v. Perry (1963) 220 Cal.App.2d 841, 846, 34 Cal.Rptr. 110. In these cases there was no error because when the defendants objected, the court granted a continuance and allowed the defendants ample time to comprehend, analyze and evaluate the report.
