81(1)Where, in the opinion of the court, there is sufficient cause, the court may make an order
(a) extending the time for any hearing under this Part, or
(b) subject to subsection (2), adjourning the hearing.
81(2)The court shall dispose of an application made under this Part within thirty days after it is made unless the court is satisfied that exceptional circumstances require the disposition of the application to be delayed beyond such day, in which case the court may so order, stating in the order the circumstances that gave rise to the order; but a failure to comply with this subsection does not deprive the court of jurisdiction.
