Defendants may move to dismiss some or all claims but can only make one motion to dismiss, asserting all defenses (other than those in FRCP 8(c)) that were available when the motion was made (FRCP 12(g)).
Citation of cases must be by title, to the page of the volume where the case begins, and to the pages upon which the pertinent matter appears in at least one of the reporters cited.
A motion to dismiss (aka demurrer in some states) is a powerful litigation tool that can stop a lawsuit cold in its tracks. When granting a motion to dismiss, the judge essentially decides the case in the defendant's favor most often denying the plaintiff the opportunity to go to trial.
Generally, however, a defendant must file a motion to dismiss before filing an "answer" to the complaint. If the motion to dismiss is denied, the defendant must still file their answer, usually within a shortened amount of time.The motion to dismiss must be filed with the court and served on the other party.
The most common type of pre-answer motion is the motion to dismiss. A pre-answer motion to dismiss may be made on any of the grounds listed in FRCP 12(b). Courts may also consider other grounds for dismissal raised in a pre-answer motion to dismiss, including immunity or failure to exhaust administrative remedies.
