The plaintiff, Maryam Furney, sought an adjournment of the defendants' summary judgment motions to allow her time to retain new counsel after her previous lawyer unexpectedly resigned.
The defendants opposed the adjournment, citing significant delays and the plaintiff's history of changing counsel.
The court granted the adjournment, emphasizing the importance of a litigant feeling they have had their day in court, especially when facing potentially dispositive motions.
The motions were adjourned to a peremptory date in May 2025.
