New York, NY asked in Divorce for New York

Q: HiAm I being tricked?

It is the second time that the opposing counsel "the Plaintiff" sends messages to me "the defendant" in a matrimonial proceeding in Supreme Court Kings County NY that I should stipulate the court and request a 90 day postponement to our proceeding "let your attorney draft a stipulation to adjourn for three months" is the message. When I ask them why can't the attorney for the Plaintiff to so, they come up with lousy excuses. I feel that I'm being tricked and I wonder if you can clarify me what their real intentions are?
