[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Judge's Name] [Judge's Designation] [Name of Court] [Court Address] [City, State, ZIP] Re: [Case Name and Number] Dear [Judge's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing in reference to the plaintiff's amended complaint and subsequent second amended complaint filed in the above-mentioned case. As the defendant, I am kindly requesting your attention to the following motion to strike the aforementioned pleadings. The purpose of this motion is to request the court to strike the plaintiff's amended complaint and second amended complaint on several grounds, which I will describe in detail below. 1. Legal Insufficiency: The plaintiff's amended complaint and second amended complaint fail to state a valid cause of action against the defendant. The documents lack specific facts that support a legal claim, making it insufficient to proceed. Furthermore, the complaints do not conform to the rules and requirements set forth by [West Virginia Code/Rules of Civil Procedure]. 2. Violation of Statute of Limitations: The plaintiff's amended complaint and second amended complaint were filed beyond the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. As per [West Virginia Code/precedent], the plaintiff's claims are time-barred, and the court should dismiss them accordingly. 3. Lack of Standing: The plaintiff lacks standing to bring the present claims, as they fail to demonstrate any direct injury, interest, or right affected by the defendant's alleged actions. Without standing, the plaintiff lacks the requisite legal capacity to initiate and pursue this lawsuit. 4. Failure to Comply with Pleading Rules: The plaintiff's amended complaint and second amended complaint fail to adhere to the pleading rules and requirements stipulated in [West Virginia Code/Rules of Civil Procedure]. These deficiencies include but are not limited to vagueness, lack of specific allegations, and failure to identify the legal basis of the claims. 5. Prejudice to the Defendant: Allowing the plaintiff to proceed with these amended complaints would cause significant prejudice to the defendant. The defendant has already incurred unnecessary expenses and expended considerable time and resources in defending these baseless claims. Fairness and justice require that the court strike these amended complaints to prevent further prejudice. In light of the above grounds, we respectfully request this Honorable Court to grant our motion and strike the plaintiff's amended complaint and second amended complaint in their entirety. As the defendant, I trust that this motion demonstrates the insufficiency of the plaintiff's claims, and I am confident that the court will uphold the principles of justice and dismiss these amended complaints accordingly. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to the court's ruling. 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 Designation, if applicable] [Your Affiliation, if applicable]
