A motion may be withdrawn at any time prior to its return date by filing with the clerk a written request signed by counsel for the moving party. A request to withdraw a motion after submission must be supported by a stipulation of withdrawal signed by all counsel.
Winning an appeal is difficult. In California, fewer than 20% of civil appeals succeed in changing the original decision. This is because the Court of Appeal assumes the trial court's decision was correct unless the person appealing (the appellant) can prove it was wrong.
While it may be a simple document to prepare, the notice of appeal is a critical one and comes with strict deadlines. In most cases, the appellant must file a notice of appeal within 60 days of service of the notice of entry of judgment. See Cal. Rule of Court 8.104(a)(1).
(a) Normal time (1) Except as provided in (A), (B), and (2), a notice of appeal must be filed within 60 days after the rendition of the judgment or the making of the order being appealed.
A reconsideration letter is a written request addressed to a judge or any other decision-maker asking them to reconsider their ruling or decision. The letter should clearly state the reasons why the individual is requesting a reconsideration and provide any new evidence or arguments that support their case.
