What happens if court hearings are scheduled at an inconvenient time? Can it be changed?

The court tries to ensure that dates and times are scheduled for trials and hearings that are convenient for both parties. It is not possible to change a court date after it is listed unless you apply to the court, who are not required to grant it, even if both parties are amenable. The court considers the request and takes into account both whether the request wastes court time, and the objective of Civil Procedure Rules, which state that the just handling of cases is a priority.
