Re: Taken to court for trademark usage
I know nothing about the court proceeding or the type of motion. If you wish you can try to get the court to adjourn the proceedings on Monday, by indicating that due to lack of notice you have not had time to consult a lawyer. Or you can try to get a lawyer on Monday morning.

I would ask for a dismissal to consult with an attorney, before any actions happen. However, I would try and call an attorney if there are any avalible for the weekend simply to consult with him and get his opinion on the matter.
