FAQ

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.

A motion to strike is a request by one party in a United States trial requesting that the presiding judge order the removal of all or part of the opposing party's pleading to the court.

C.C.P. § 436 allows for a motion to strike “any irrelevant, false, or improper matter asserted in any pleading” or portion of a pleading “not drawn of filed in conformity with the laws of this state.” A motion to strike is proper “when a substantive defect is clear from the face of a complaint.” (PH II, Inc.

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®. Under FRCP 12(f), the court may strike from a pleading an insufficient defense or any redundant, immaterial, impertinent, or scandalous matter.

What happens next? If we filed the motion to strike in a trial court, then we will set the motion to be heard by a judge or magistrate, and be ruled upon. If we filed it in an appeals court, the appeals court will read the motion and offending document and will rule on it without hearing.

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.
