There are several ways to dodge a lawsuit.
Whether you’re a plaintiff or defendant, you must know what defendants can do to dodge a lawsuit.
How to dodge, if you’re a defendant.
How to stop the defendant from dodging, if you’re a plaintiff.
In this Tips & Tactics, I share a few dodge tricks below.
The complete details are yours in my affordable 24-hour step-by-step Jurisdictionary course. People tell us an 8th grader can understand my course in 24 hours.
If a defendant is served with a complaint, he may be able to dodge the lawsuit by filing motions to avoid filing an Answer!
This tactic is sometimes called the flurry of motions.
However! Once a defendant files an Answer, he’s locked in and misses this chance to dodge the lawsuit.
Inexperienced lawyers and pro se people (who don’t yet have my Jurisdictionary course) make a common mistake and file an Answer to the plaintiff’s Complaint … instead of using the flurry of motions my course explains:
- Motion to Dismiss
- Motion to Strike
- Motion for More Definite Statement
Each of these motions postpones the necessity of filing an Answer to the plaintiff’s Complaint … and gains you valuable time and evidence-gathering opportunities!
In some cases it puts an end to the case. Period!
Here are just a few points you absolutely must know.
Motion to Dismiss: There are several grounds for filing this motion. Here are a few. The rest are in my course.
- Lack of Subject Matter Jurisdiction
- Improper Service of Process
- Improper Venue
- Failure to State a Cause of Action
The last of these is the most common! If you don’t yet understand causes of action and their elements, you are not yet ready to win in court. The most important piece of knowledge you can learn about lawsuits is that they proceed on one or more causes of action, and each cause of action has certain required elements that must be alleged and ultimately proven. Each is fully explained in my course.
Motion to Strike: The following are a few of the many grounds for filing this motion:
- The Complaint Contains False Allegations
- The Complaint Contains Scandalous Allegations
- The Complaint Contains Impertinent Allegations
The first of these is very powerful and is sometimes called a Motion to Strike Sham Pleading.
Know them all, however.
Motion for More Definite Statement: This motion should be filed when a Complaint is so poorly-written that a reasonable person would have difficulty understanding what it says, i.e., what the plaintiff is complaining about.
The court cannot require you to file an Answer if the Complaint is so poorly-written that no reasonable person could discern what the plaintiff is saying. For example, I’ve filed this motion when sentences in the Complaint had no verb!
If you are sued, do NOT file an Answer until you use all these motions that apply to the circumstances!
Failure to use the Flurry of Motions weakens your case and, of course, misses a valuable opportunity to dodge the case altogether.
Of course you cannot learn all you need to know about the Flurry of Motions or the other case-winning tactics my affordable Jurisdictionary course explains step-by-step in just 24-hours, but this week’s Tips & Tactics gives you an idea what you’ll be missing if you don’t order now.
