softwareguy Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 In doing some research on a recent lawsuit notice I received, I noticed a few other lawsuits against me that were never served, and for some reason, never proceeded (probably because I was never served, and no such proof was filed).Should I try and have these cases dismissed?I have noticed a few other cases that show:"CASE DISMISSED WITH DISPOSITION OF REQUEST FOR DISMISSAL"What does that mean??

1stStep Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 It means the plaintiff dismissed for one reason or another...In CA, you can be served with a case up to 4 years (if memory serves) after a lawsuit is filed, however many courts will sanction a plaintiff if they fail to serve within 6 months. Of course, this all depends on local court rules as well. //I'd avoid filing a motion to dismiss...let sleeping dogs lie... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was exactly 6 months after their initial filling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
