    Thank you so much.
    This answers some of my questions! Appreciate your creative approach.
    In general, then, would the 20 days for Answer be automatically paused or tolled until the M2D is ruled on? How do you know how the judge ruled? Do they ever blow off a M2D and not respond? I'm pretty green but trying to learn.
    Or would Defendant still need to file Answer w/in the original 20 days?
    Should D request to enlarge her time in the M2D or in a separate motion?
    If court orders Mediation Hearing after M2D is filed, is that a way of overruling the M2D or can an amended M2D still be filed to include FTSaC?
    Thank you in advance. Subbed. If you have vids on these questions I would love to watch.

    Hi thanks for the information
    I already answered to the complaint, so I still have the time to request a motion to dismiss? Because the contract has an arbitration clause

    How often do you file motions to dismiss in a criminal case and how often are those motions granted?

    • @TigerLawProf

      generally speaking, motions to dismiss must be brought BEFORE trial, but the specific rules regarding timing and the number of motions will depend in which State the case is being tried.

    Hi I had a trial hearing on a temporary injunction in the State of Florida that was filed on June 29th of 2022 the attorney that was hired for the person that filed for the injunction ask for a continuance and the judge gave a 40-day continuance what do you recommend I do as of today the restraining order has 190 day

      Generally speaking, courts are very strict about deadlines, but I strongly recommend that you obtain legal representation. If you are a student at UCF, try contacting the office of Student Legal Services on the third floor of the Student Union building. If you are not a student but live in the Orlando area, try contacting the office Legal Aid Society of the Orange County Bar Association on Robinson Street in downtown Orlando.

    What if defendant filed an answer but deny the allegations that are very serious and ask the judge to deny the petition for rule. In a child custody case! Just wondering ?

    Can u please tell me how to file a motion to request a jury trial in a civil case

    • @TigerLawProf
      @TigerLawProf  Před 4 lety +2

      Although the procedural mechanics vary depending on whether you are in State court or in federal court, generally speaking the party initiating the civil lawsuit (the plaintiff) must demand a jury trial when they file their complaint with the clerk of the court.

    what if you file a motion to dismiss and the state doesn't respond within the 21 days of of rules of civil procedure which means they are in violation

    • @TigerLawProf
      @TigerLawProf  Před 4 lety

      Good question. Most times, the plaintiff will request an extension of time to reply to the motion to dismiss, but the plaintiff must to file this request before the deadline. What if the plaintiff misses the deadline, however? Since most courts are very strict about deadlines, a court will most likely rule on the defendant's motion to dismiss without the benefit of the plaintiff's reply. In addition, the court could, at its sole discretion, impose sanctions on the attorney for the plaintiff.
