Massachusetts Motion is a type of motion used in legal proceedings in the state of Massachusetts. It is a procedural tool used by a party to a lawsuit to ask the court to make a decision or take action on a specific issue. There are two types of Massachusetts Motion: pre-trial motions, which are requests made before the trial begins, and post-trial motions, which are requests made after the trial has concluded. Pre-trial motions can include motions to dismiss, motions for summary judgment, motions to strike, and motions to continue. Post-trial motions can include motions for a new trial, motions for judgment notwithstanding the verdict, or post-trial motions for relief from judgment.
