FAQ
Overview. During a civil case, most of your interactions with the judge will be the result of you or the other side filing a written motion. A “motion” is a written request to the judge that asks for a ruling on some issue in the case.
If you want to file a motion, the process is generally something like this: You write your motion. You file your motion with the court clerk. The court clerk inserts the date and time your motion will be heard by the judge. You “serve” (mail) your motion to the other side.
Motions for clarification are either the result of sloppy lawyering, poor reading comprehension and/or truly unforeseen circumstances that the court or parties could did not anticipate. A motion for clarification is an admission that something went wrong.
The phrase “clear and convincing evidence” means that degree of proof which, considering all the evidence in the case, produces the firm and abiding belief that it is highly probable that the proposition on which the defendant has the burden of proof is true.
The Motion and the Notice of Motion need to be e-filed with the Clerk of the Court. The e-Filing system will reject your filing if you do not enter a court date on the form before e-filing it.
A Motion for Clarification is a formal request submitted to a court to seek clarity on a specific issue within a ruling or order. This motion is not intended to alter the original order but rather to ensure that all parties understand the court's intentions and directives clearly.
