A Nevada Motion for Leave to File Third Party Complaint is a legal document that is filed by a party in a lawsuit seeking permission from the court to bring in a third party as a defendant in the case. This motion is commonly filed in civil litigation cases when the party seeking to file the third party complaint believes that another party, who is not originally involved in the lawsuit, may be liable for some or all of the claims made in the case. The purpose of this motion is to allow the party filing the motion (referred to as the "moving") to add a third party to the lawsuit, in order to join them as a defendant and seek contribution, indemnity, or other legal remedies against the third party. By filing this motion, the moving is asking the court to grant them permission to initiate legal proceedings against a third party, even though the lawsuit initially only involved the moving and the original defendant. There are different types of Nevada Motions for Leave to File Third Party Complaint. Some common types include: 1. Indemnification claim: In this type of motion, the party filing the motion asserts that the third party should be brought into the lawsuit because they have a legal obligation to indemnify or compensate the moving in the event that the moving is found liable for damages or other legal responsibilities. This motion is typically filed when a party believes that the third party has contractual or legal obligations to provide such indemnification. 2. Joint-tortfeasor claim: This type of motion is filed when the party filing the motion believes that the third party shares liability for the damages or injuries alleged in the lawsuit. The moving seeks to bring the third party into the lawsuit as a joint defendant, sharing responsibility for the harm caused. 3. Contribution claim: In this type of motion, the moving asserts that the third party should be added as a defendant because they have a legal duty to contribute to any damages awarded against the moving. The moving claims that the third party's actions or negligence contributed to the harm suffered by the plaintiff, and therefore, they should bear some financial burden. In order to file a Nevada Motion for Leave to File Third Party Complaint, the moving must provide a detailed explanation of the grounds for adding the third party, along with supporting legal arguments and evidence. The court will then review the motion and decide whether to grant or deny permission to include the third party in the lawsuit.
