FAQ

A motion to strike class allegations is a powerful tool to dispose of the case and avoid such costs when it is clear from the pleadings that a class cannot be certified.

Because it's one of the “12(b)” defenses, a motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim may be raised by motion filed before an answer. FRCP 12(b). Such motions are often made at the earliest stage of the case to defeat or limit a claim or to stall the case before proceeding to costly and time-consuming discovery.

In order to remove a case to federal court, the federal court must have subject matter jurisdiction over the matter. If there is no federal jurisdiction, the case cannot be removed. Generally speaking, a case can be removed to federal court if it could have been filed in federal court by the plaintiff.

File a motion to dismiss and obtain an order from the court -- this is the only method allowed when a party has filed a response but does not agree to stipulate to dismiss a motion.

The court may grant a motion to dismiss if the plaintiff's complaint fails to allege all the elements of a claim adequately. Or the court may grant it if the complaint fails to allege a measurable injury.

As with all motions, a motion to strike must state with particularity the grounds for seeking the order to strike, as well as the relief sought. FRCP 7(b); Smart Code®.

General format - each motion generally consists of a case caption, a title that briefly identifies the relief sought, a series of numbered paragraphs that explains -- in a logical way -- why you are entitled to that relief, a prayer for relief, a signature block, a certification that a copy of the motion was sent to ...

I. Reason for Motion to Strike A motion to strike can be brought to strike any “irrelevant, false or improper matter inserted in any pleading,” or to challenge a pleading that is “not drawn or filed in conformity with the laws of this state, a court rule or order of court.” (Code Civ. Proc., § 436.)

A “motion to dismiss” is typically filed in response to a complaint and is made in lieu of filing an “answer.” Technically, a plaintiff can move to “strike” a defense that a defendant has pled, given that defenses are subject to the same pleading requirements as are the plaintiff's claims.
