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] [Recipient's Name] [Recipient's Address] [City, State, ZIP] Subject: Motion to Strike Plaintiff's Amended Complaint and Second Amended Complaint Dear [Recipient's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to submit a Motion to Strike Plaintiff's Amended Complaint and Second Amended Complaint on behalf of [Defendant], the defendant in the above-mentioned case [Case Name and Number] pending before the [Court Name] in [City], [State]. In accordance with the rules of civil procedure and upon reviewing the amendments made by the plaintiff, we respectfully request the court to strike the amended complaints for the following reasons: 1. Lack of Legal Basis: Our thorough analysis of the amended complaints reveals a lack of legal basis for the claims made by the plaintiff. The complaints fail to establish a prima facie case or articulate any actionable cause of action against our client. Moreover, the amendments do not cure any deficiencies identified in the original complaint. 2. Violation of Statutes of Limitations: The plaintiff's amendments attempt to introduce new causes of action that are barred by the applicable statutes of limitations. As per South Dakota law, the time limits for filing a complaint have elapsed, thus rendering these newly raised claims invalid and subject to dismissal. 3. Undue Prejudice and Delay: Allowing the plaintiff to proceed with the amended complaints would unduly prejudice our client, disrupt the fair administration of justice, and cause unnecessary delay in resolving the dispute. The introduction of new claims at this late stage of the litigation unfairly alters the course of the case, depriving our client of ample time to prepare an appropriate defense. We kindly request a prompt hearing on this motion to address the concerns raised and ensure an efficient and fair resolution of the matter. We also request that the court grant our client such other and further relief as may be just and proper under the circumstances. In support of this Motion, we have attached a Memorandum of Law, which thoroughly analyzes the legal basis for our arguments and provides relevant case law that supports our position. Furthermore, we have filed this motion in good faith and not for the purpose of any delay or harassment. Thank you for your attention in this matter. We trust that the court will carefully consider our motion and grant the requested relief. Should you require any additional information or wish to schedule a hearing, please do not hesitate to contact me. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Title/Position] [Law Firm Name]
