Get Notice Of Motion. Notice Of Motion - Appellate

A Notice of Motion is like the invitation to the party. It tells the court and the other side what the party is for, the time, date and place, and when to RSVP. This is called the relief sought, the return date and the time for service of answering papers/CPLR 2214(b).

Unlike a notice of motion, which is served first then filed, an order to show causes is filed first then served. It is filed before serving because the court sets the motion date, the amount of time for service of the motion, and how the order to show cause must be served.

The judge will either grant or deny the motion. If it is granted, the case is over and the defendant wins. If the motion is denied, as it usually is, the defense is given the opportunity to present its evidence.

The “notice of motion” is where the court clerk inserts the date, time, and place the motion will be heard by the judge. When you “serve” (mail) the motion to the other side, the notice notifies the other side when the hearing will be held.

The motion must include a separate "Notice of Motion" which includes a brief summary of the nature of the motion, the deadline for filing a response, and if there is a hearing, the date, time, and location of the hearing.

The response must be filed within 10 days after service of the motion unless the court shortens or extends the time. A motion authorized by Rules 8, 9, 18, or 41 may be granted before the 10-day period runs only if the court gives reasonable notice to the parties that it intends to act sooner.
