Description

This form is a sample letter in Word format covering the subject matter of the title of the form. Subject: Ohio Sample Letter for Motion to Strike Plaintiff's Amended Complaint Dear [Recipient's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. As you are aware, we are currently engaged in a legal proceeding wherein the plaintiff has filed an amended complaint. In light of the circumstances and in order to protect our client's rights, I am writing to provide you with a sample letter for filing a Motion to Strike Plaintiff's Amended Complaint under Ohio law. [Your Name] [Your Title] [Your Organization] [Your Address] [City, State, Zip Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Recipient's Name] [Recipient's Title] [Recipient's Organization] [Recipient's Address] [City, State, Zip Code] Subject: Motion to Strike Plaintiff's Amended Complaint Dear [Recipient's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing on behalf of [Your Client's Name], the defendant in the aforementioned case. We have carefully reviewed the plaintiff's recently filed amended complaint and find it to be deficient in several respects. Consequently, we seek to file a Motion to Strike Plaintiff's Amended Complaint under the provisions of the Ohio Rules of Civil Procedure. The grounds for our motion are as follows: 1. Lack of proper legal justification: Upon a thorough examination of the amended complaint, it is apparent that the plaintiff has failed to include any specific legal basis supporting the newly added allegations. The absence of such justification constitutes a violation of the Ohio Rules of Civil Procedure Rule X, which requires the pleading party to state concise and specific facts upon which relief may be granted. 2. Undue delay and prejudice: The plaintiff's decision to introduce an amended complaint at this stage of the litigation causes undue delay and prejudice to our client. Having already answered the original complaint, our client has prepared their defense strategy based on the issues and allegations contained therein. By introducing new claims, the plaintiff seeks to circumvent the judicial process and disadvantage our client’s ability to prepare a robust defense. 3. Failure to comply with procedural requirements: Our analysis indicates that the plaintiff has failed to adhere to various procedural requirements set forth by the Ohio Rules of Civil Procedure in filing the amended complaint. These requirements are critically important to maintain the integrity of the judicial process and ensure fairness to all parties involved. In light of the above reasons, we kindly request that you consider our Motion to Strike Plaintiff's Amended Complaint and, upon approval, strike said amended complaint from the court record. By doing so, we can prevent any unnecessary delays and additional burden on the already overburdened court system. We firmly believe that striking the amended complaint will help preserve the fairness and efficiency of the litigation process and protect the rights of all parties involved. Enclosed with this letter is a draft Motion to Strike Plaintiff's Amended Complaint document for your review. We kindly request that you review it for accuracy and compatibility with Ohio law and make any necessary revisions before filing it with the court. Thank you for your attention to this matter. We look forward to the swift resolution of the issues raised in this case. Should you require any further information or clarification, please do not hesitate to contact me at [Your Phone Number] or [Your Email Address]. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Title] Enclosure: Draft Motion to Strike Plaintiff's Amended Complaint (Please note that this sample letter is for informational purposes only and should not be considered legal advice.
