Ohio Motion For Reviver is a legal process by which a party can ask a court to revive a previously dismissed or otherwise terminated lawsuit. The motion can be brought by any party involved in the lawsuit, or even a third party, and must be accompanied by a brief and memorandum of law that explain why the lawsuit should be revived. Ohio Motion For Reviver can be filed in any state court, but is most common in Ohio. There are two primary types of Ohio Motion For Reviver: 1) Motion to Reinstate Dismissed Complaint and 2) Motion to Reopen Terminated Action. The Motion to Reinstate Dismissed Complaint is filed when a lawsuit has been dismissed due to a procedural mistake, such as failing to properly serve the opposing party, and the Motion to Reopen Terminated Action is filed when a lawsuit has been terminated because the parties have reached a settlement or reached a voluntary dismissal.
