If the main hearing cannot be completed in one day, it may be interrupted; if possible, it should continue on consecutive days, and otherwise the case should be handled on at least two weekdays per week unless postponed under section 10. A party or person to be heard may be taken into custody if the court has ordered that person to be brought to court. The court chair must keep order during hearings and issue any necessary rules.
