FAQ
A motion to dismiss or transfer the action under the doctrine of forum non conveniens must be filed by a party not later than 90 days after the last day allowed for the filing of that party's answer. (b)Proceedings on motions.
There are two types of Motions to Dismiss: 2-615 Motions and 2-619 Motions. The names of these motions are based on the statute that provides for them (735 ILCS 5/2-615 and 735 ILCS 5/2-619, respectively). 2-615 Motions and 2-619 Motions serve different purposes.
A “motion to dismiss” is typically filed in response to a complaint and is made in lieu of filing an “answer.” Technically, a plaintiff can move to “strike” a defense that a defendant has pled, given that defenses are subject to the same pleading requirements as are the plaintiff's claims.
The court may grant a motion to dismiss if the plaintiff's complaint fails to allege all the elements of a claim adequately. Or the court may grant it if the complaint fails to allege a measurable injury.
A Motion to Dismiss is often filed by the defendant right after the plaintiff serves the defendant with the complaint. Many of the reasons for dismissing a case may be argued only at the beginning of the case before the defendant's answer to the complaint or any other motion.
The defendant generally waives their right to file a motion to dismiss once they file an answer to the complaint. There are some exceptions where a motion to dismiss may be filed at a later point in litigation, such as if the plaintiff amends the complaint.
All of these documents must be filed and served on you or the “moving party” 14 days before the motion hearing date. Finally, the “moving party” or the party that files the Notice of Motion will have the opportunity to submit a reply and must do so 7 days before the motion hearing date.
A Motion to Dismiss pursuant to 735 ILCS 5/2-615 alleges that there are defects on the face of the pleading. This typically means that the pleading does not state a claim for which the relief being requested can be granted.
A motion to dismiss is a written request by a defendant asking the Court to dispose of some or all the claims raised in the Complaint before the case can move forward in the litigation process. The Defendant has 21 days to file an Answer, or otherwise respond to the Complaint.
