Begin with a clear and concise introduction, stating the grounds for dismissal. Follow with a detailed argument section that outlines why the complaint should be dismissed, supported by legal authorities. Use Casefleets customizable reports to organize your arguments and ensure all critical points are covered.
A defendant making a motion to dismiss must do so before filing an answer or other responsive pleading, and the motion is generally due when the defendants answer would have been due (see FRCP 12(b)Opens in a new window).
As noted above, there are three types of pre-answer motions that can be filed in response to a complaint: (1) a motion to dismiss the complaint, (2) a motion for a more definite statement, and (3) a motion to strike. A motion to dismiss presents an opportunity to try to end the case prior to filing an answer.
A motion for judgment on the pleadings is filed after the pleadings have closed, but early enough not to delay trial. FRCP 12(c). Pleadings are closed once a complaint and answers by all defendants have been filed.
If the opposing party does not answer, then you have to file a motion to compel the opposing party to respond. The party must answer your request if the court orders them to. If the party still does not answer, they can be held in contempt of court and/or a default judgment can be issued in your favor.

Although most defenses to a complaint must be stated in the answer, a defendant can move to dismiss the complaint before filing an answer. Motions to dismiss typically make one or more of these arguments: The court lacks the authority or jurisdiction to decide the case or to compel a defendant to appear.
A motion to dismiss will be final only if the plaintiff chooses not to amend and proceed, or if the pleading defect is one that cannot be overcome. A motion for summary judgment is another way to ask for a pretrial resolution of a case.
A motion to dismiss is a written request by a defendant asking the Court to dispose of some or all the claims raised in the Complaint before the case can move forward in the litigation process. The Defendant has 21 days to file an Answer, or otherwise respond to the Complaint.
