April 15, 2005.
Appeal from the Circuit Court for Polk County, J. Dale Durrance, Judge.
Michael S. Farrell of Dodds Farrell, P.A., Lakeland, for Appellant.
Amanda L. Embry, pro se.
Affirmed. See Fla. Fam. L.R.P. 12.610(c)(4)(A) (requiring a showing of good cause for the court to grant a continuance of a temporary injunction for protection against repeat violence and a continuance of the full hearing); see generally Maistrosky v. Harvey, 133 So.2d 103, 105 (Fla. 2d DCA 1961) (explaining that an attorney's absence does not automatically give a right of continuance; the denial of continuance will be sustained on appeal unless an abuse of discretion "clearly and affirmatively" appears from the record).
FULMER, WALLACE, and LaROSE, JJ., Concur.
NOT FINAL UNTIL TIME EXPIRES TO FILE REHEARING MOTION AND, IF FILED, DETERMINED.
