第31解
continuance of trial
【英文】The district court decided to grant a continuance of trial to the defense.
【译文】地区法院决定对被告延期审判。
【解释】不能将continuance of trial理解为“审判继续”，而应该将其译为“审判延期”。
再如：
Good cause must be shown to get a continuance of trial.The judge decides what a good cause is.Put all your reasons in the motion for a continuance of trial because the judge may rule without a hearing.〔译文：要想延期审判，需提出正当理由。理由是否正当，由法官做出裁决。将所有要求延期审判的理由在请求书里加以陈述，因为法官不需聆听就可以做出裁决。〕
