FAQ
Q: When should I file a Motion to Strike?
It is used to remove "redundant, immaterial, impertinent, or scandalous matter" from a pleading. It is also common for striking improper evidence from a declaration or an entire affirmative defense that has no legal basis.
Q: Is this the same as a Motion to Dismiss?
No. A Motion to Dismiss targets the entire case or specific claims. A Motion to Strike is usually more "surgical," targeting specific words, paragraphs, or defenses within a document.
Q: What if the court has specific formatting rules?
I will edit the document to the specific court rules required. Please provide your local rules or a sample template, and I will ensure the final draft adheres strictly to those requirements.
Q: Can I strike an entire declaration?
Yes. If a declaration is filled with hearsay or lacks personal knowledge, I can draft a motion to strike the inadmissible portions or the entire document.
Q: What do I need to provide?
Please provide the document you want to strike and a clear explanation of which parts you believe are improper or irrelevant.
