If I am understanding the question correctly - no motion is necessary or required to request the judge to move forward with the hearing. It is ALWAYS the court's intention to move a hearing forward. Unless the judge dismisses the case for some legal reasong, court hearings will automatically go forward unless a motion to drop or stop the hearing is presented on which he must rule.


What is a cross notice?

A Cross-Notice is generally sent from one party in a legal dispute to the other party. It notifies them that an original Hearing will ALSO include another matter. For example - in Family Court, you may have a Hearing for Child Support and a Hearing based on a Motion for Contempt (your ex failed to comply with the last agreement). You have filed Discovery documents for the child support related part but your ex hasn't produced the documents you requested - so you filed a Motion to Compel Discovery - but the courts haven't ruled on it and you need the documents. You would file a Cross-Notice of Hearing to identify that you plan to take up the matter of the Motion to Compel Discovery during the Motion for Contempt Hearing so you can have the documents you need for the Child Support Hearing (assuming it occurs later).
