Either party can make motions before the court makes a final decision on the matters in your case. An example of a motion is where one party asks the judge for a temporary order concerning where the children will live or how much time they will spend with each parent.
A motion is a way to ask the court for certain action. Most often, the party will âmoveâ the court in order to obtain some kind of order. Motion to dismiss: A motion to dismiss asks the court to dismiss either whole or part of a complaint, counterclaim, or crossclaim.
