### sec.21 Adjournment within district
Despite section 20 and any other provision of this Act, when any action, matter or proceeding is pending or is being heard in the District Court in its civil or criminal jurisdiction at any place, the judge to whom the court is assigned may order that the hearing be adjourned from that place to some other place within the same district, if the judge determines that on the balance of convenience the adjournment should be ordered.
