An Alaska Notice of Motion is an official document that is filed with the court in order to notify all parties of a pending motion. It is usually used in civil and criminal cases as a way to start legal proceedings. The Notice of Motion must include the name of the moving party, the name of the opposing party, the relief sought, the time and place of the hearing, and a statement that the opposing party must file an answer to the motion. There are two types of Alaska Notice of Motion: a short-form and a long-form. The short-form is typically used when the motion is straightforward, while the long-form requires more information and is used for more complex motions.
