Description

This form is a sample letter in Word format covering the subject matter of the title of the form. [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] [Case Title and Number] Subject: Motion to Strike Plaintiff's Amended Complaint Dear [Judge's Name], I, [Your Name], am I writing this letter as the defendant in the aforementioned case to respectfully submit a Motion to Strike Plaintiff's Amended Complaint. I believe it is crucial for the court to consider this motion due to the following grounds: 1. Lack of Legal Basis: Upon careful review of the Plaintiff's Amended Complaint, it is evident that it fails to establish a valid legal basis for the claims raised. The amended complaint does not meet the essential elements required to support a cause of action under Missouri law. As such, it is imperative to strike the amended complaint as it lacks merit. 2. Failure to Comply with Procedural Rules: The Plaintiff has not adhered to the rules of procedure governing the filing of amended complaints in Missouri. The amendment was submitted beyond the established time limit, violating the provisions specified by the court. This failure to comply with procedural rules warrants the striking of the amended complaint. 3. Prejudice and Undue Delay: Allowing the Plaintiff's Amended Complaint to stand would significantly prejudice the defendant. The amended allegations introduce new claims, facts, or legal theories that were absent in the initial complaint. By permitting these new claims, the defendant would suffer from unnecessary confusion and delays in preparing their defense. Striking the amended complaint is necessary to ensure a fair and expedited resolution of this matter. Furthermore, the Missouri Rules of Civil Procedure provide provisions and guidelines for the proper filing of motions to strike amended complaints. I have thoroughly reviewed and complied with these rules in submitting this motion. The Court's attention to this matter is paramount to preserving the integrity of the legal process and delivering justice effectively. Enclosed with this letter, please find a copy of the Motion to Strike Plaintiff's Amended Complaint, along with any supporting documents and legal authorities. I kindly request the Court to review these materials and consider the motion promptly. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. I trust that the Court will carefully assess the motion and make a just decision in accordance with the laws of Missouri. Yours sincerely, [Your Name]
