South Dakota Motion and Order for Delay is a motion, or legal document, which can be filed in a South Dakota court. It requests that the court delay or postpone a trial or hearing date, or extend the amount of time a party has to file a document or take other action. The motion must include a valid reason for the request. The order is signed by a judge or magistrate and is then served to the other parties in the case. There are two types of South Dakota Motion and Order for Delay: 1) Motion for Continuance, and 2) Motion for Extension of Time. A Motion for Continuance is used to delay the date of a hearing or trial, while a Motion for Extension of Time is used to extend the amount of time a party has to file a document or take other action. Both types of motions must include a valid reason for the request.
