The Boehms argue that Allen’s continuance motion failed to comply with Local Rule 34.1 of the 19th Judicial Circuit, which applies to civil cases and permits the court to grant continuances upon good cause shown by a written motion and supporting affidavit. Because the continuance motion under section 517.071.1 is not permissive based on a showing of good cause, the local rule cannot be applied to void the statutory requirement.
