REQUEST FOR CONTINUANCE OF HEARING ON MOTION FOR APPOINTMENT OF GUARDIAN AD LITEM 

 2

It would be a significant hardship for Petitioner to get her children ready for school, drive 

them to school and then drive from her home in French Gulch to Sacramento in time for a 9:00 a.m.

hearing. Petitioner’s children will be out of school on summer break bymid June at which time she can

arrange for daycare.

The Court calendar is available for a hearing on Petitioner’s Motion for Appointment of

Guardian ad Litem on June 13, 2008.

 There has been no appearance by any defendant in this action and therefore no party will be

prejudiced or inconvenienced by a continuance of two weeks.

For these reasons, Petitioner respectfully requests the Court continue the hearing on her Motion

for Appointment of Guardian Ad Litem to Friday, June 13, 2008 at 9:00 a.m., in Courtroom 7.
