A Maryland Claimant's Motion is a legal document filed by a claimant in a civil case in the state of Maryland. It is a request to the court to take a specific action, such as setting a trial date, ordering a witness to testify, or allowing a document into evidence. The motion must be accompanied by a memorandum of law that explains why the requested action should be taken. There are three main types of Maryland Claimant's Motion: Motion for Default Judgment, Motion for Summary Judgment, and Motion to Compel Discovery. A Motion for Default Judgment is a request to the court to enter a judgment in favor of the claimant without a trial because the respondent failed to respond to the complaint or the motion. A Motion for Summary Judgment is a request for the court to enter a judgment in favor of the claimant based on a lack of material facts in dispute, without a trial. A Motion to Compel Discovery is a request to the court to order a party to produce documents or answer questions to allow the claimant access to information necessary for their case.
