Unable to give that information. The court maintains a DOCKET (a list of cases that need to be scheduled to be heard). Every case is different - some are easy and quick, and some are difficult and long, and there are only a certain number of judges available to hear cases. If your case is on the docket, it will be heard... eventually.
