That depends on the court, the judge, and the number of continuances you have had. Depending on this, the judge will either give you another continuance to find a lawyer or refuse to give you a continuance. If the judge refuses, you will have to either plead guilty to the ticket or plead not guilty and go to trial. The trial might be held right then, at the end of the court session, or at another session. I would suggest contacting an attorney to help you with your tickets: traffic attorneys can generally help you keep points off your record.
