Massachusetts Sample Letter for Motion to Strike Plaintiff's Amended Complaint and Second Amended Complaint [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Judge's Name] [Judge's Designation] [Name of the Court] [Court's Address] [City, State, ZIP] Re: Case Number: [Case Number] Plaintiff: [Plaintiff's Name] Defendant: [Defendant's Name] Motion to Strike Plaintiff's Amended Complaint and Second Amended Complaint Dear [Judge's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to file a Motion to Strike Plaintiff's Amended Complaint and Second Amended Complaint in the above-captioned case. I request this motion be considered in accordance with the rules and regulations governing civil procedures in Massachusetts. Keywords: Massachusetts, sample letter, motion to strike, plaintiff's amended complaint, second amended complaint, civil procedures. Background: This case centers on the ongoing dispute between the plaintiff, [Plaintiff's Name], and the defendant, [Defendant's Name]. The plaintiff has filed an Amended Complaint and, subsequently, a Second Amended Complaint that allegedly presents new claims, arguments, or facts. However, I firmly believe that these amended complaints are improper, redundant, and seek to cause unnecessary delay and confusion in this legal proceeding. Reasons for Motion to Strike: 1. Lack of legal basis: The plaintiff's amended complaints fail to demonstrate any new legal grounds that were previously unavailable or unknown. Instead, they merely serve as a repetition of the original complaint, creating confusion and prejudicing my client, [Defendant's Name]. Without a valid legal basis, these amended filings serve no purpose other than to unnecessarily prolong the litigation process. 2. Prejudice and undue burden: Granting the plaintiff's request to introduce additional amended complaints would undoubtedly prejudice the defendant's rights and impose undue burden and additional costs on my client. This action would require further investigation, responsiveness, and legal proceedings, extending the trial period without any justifiable cause. 3. Delay in proceedings: Allowing multiple rounds of amended complaints would significantly delay and disrupt the timely resolution of this case. It is essential to uphold the principles of judicial efficiency and avoid unnecessary prolongation, all the while ensuring access to a fair trial for both parties involved. Conclusion: In light of the aforementioned reasons, I respectfully request that this honorable court grants the motion to strike the plaintiff's Amended Complaint and Second Amended Complaint. Doing so would save precious judicial resources, streamline the trial proceedings, and ensure fairness and justice to all parties involved. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I trust that this motion will be given due consideration and that an appropriate decision will be made promptly. Should the court require any further information or documentation to support this motion, please do not hesitate to contact me at [Your Phone Number] or [Your Email Address]. Yours sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Bar Association Number, if applicable]
