A Hawaii Motion For Reconsideration Or New Trial is a legal motion used to ask the court to reconsider or reverse a prior decision or judgment in a civil or criminal case. The motion can be filed by either the plaintiff or defendant, and it must typically be filed within 28 days of the initial decision or judgment. The motion must include reasons for why the court should reconsider the decision, along with any new evidence or legal argument that may have been overlooked during the original proceedings. There are two main types of Hawaii Motion For Reconsideration Or New Trial: a Motion for Reconsideration and a Motion for New Trial. A Motion for Reconsideration is used to ask the court to re-examine the facts of the case and to possibly reverse its initial decision or judgment. A Motion for New Trial is used to ask the court to hold a new trial based on the same evidence presented in the original proceedings, but with a different outcome. Both motions must be supported by evidence or legal argument in order for the court to consider them.
