[blindlaw] federal court procedural question

[Elizabeth Myska]

Hi Marina,

I would check your circuit's website for the rules for filing. They often
have helpful information which is specific to your circuit in determining
what to call a document like yours. But I would  guess that you are correct
that you would call the document "second amended motion for preliminary
injunction." The checking of the website is just to be safe.

Season's Greeting to Everyone!

 

I have a procedural question for federal court concerning preliminary
injunctions.  I previously included my motion and arguments for preliminary
injunction in my original complaint and first amended complaint.  However,
as more facts have arisen in the case it is necessary for me to submit the
motion for preliminary injunction separate.  I will be submitting my Second
Amended and First Supplemental Class Complaint.  Since this is the first
time the motion for preliminary injunction is separate do I just call it
"motion for preliminary injunction" or do I also call this a "second amended
motion for preliminary injunction?"  Probably the latter, right?

 

I know we're all in different federal districts, I'm in NM fed district
court (10th circuit), but many procedural rules are similar.

 

Sincerely,

Marina A. Cordova
