Rule 7.1 - Communications Concerning a Lawyer's Services (a) A lawyer shall not make a false or misleading communication about the lawyer or the lawyer's services.
The response must be filed within 10 days after service of the motion unless the court shortens or extends the time.
Whenever a party has the right or is required to do some act or take some proceedings within a prescribed period after the service of a notice or other paper, other than process, upon him or her, and the notice or paper is served upon the party by mail or e-mail, three days shall be added to the prescribed period.
(b) A motion for reconsideration and accompanying brief shall be filed within 30 days of the date of the Commission's final decision and shall be served on all parties, limited participants, and intervenors, if any. A motion for reconsideration shall explain the circumstances requiring reconsideration.
Unless otherwise ordered by the judge or as provided by law, each party opposing a motion shall serve and file a response, reply memorandum, affidavits, or other responsive material not later than 30 days after service of the motion.
The deadline to file a Motion for Reconsideration will be a certain period of time after the judge has issued the order that you would like to have reconsidered or after you are served with the order, often between 14 and 30 days. You may want to speak with a lawyer in your state about the time line to file a motion.
A motion to dismiss the entire case puts off any need to file an answer until after the motion is decided. When a motion to dismiss addresses some but not all claims in the complaint, most courts have held that there is no need to answer even on those counts not affected by the motion until the ruling is given.
For example, before disgraced comedian Bill Cosby's retrial, his defense team filed a motion to dismiss, arguing that the sexual assault alleged in the criminal complaint had happened outside of the statute of limitations.
Writing a Persuasive Motion to Dismiss Be Clear and Concise: Use straightforward language and be diligent with proofreading. Stay Focused on the Legal Issues: Avoid unnecessary details and stick to the relevant legal arguments. Support Every Claim: Use statutes, case law, and rules of procedure to back up your points.
The Chair takes a vote on the Request for Permission to Withdraw a Motion. If a majority of those present and voting are in favor of withdrawing the motion, then it is withdrawn.
