Usually, the courts do not consider requests for preponing the next date, though requests for postponing the court date (i.e., adjourning the date further) may be accepted. This is because all the parties are already notified about the next date and preponing it may need notice to them, etc., and the court’s own schedule may also be disturbed. But, if you want to try, you may file an application in the court for expediting the case by giving an early date for hearing, by giving reasons for such request, and after giving notice to the other parties in the case; it is up to the court whether or not to agree to your request.
