From my reading of the “Show of Cause,” LisaL did not file a motion, she filed an affidavit. The plaintiff was ordered to file an opposition to the defendant’s motion to dismiss. What they filed instead was an affidavit.
Any lawyer (or paralegal for that matter) knows that when a motion - any motion - is filed s/he has X days to file an opposition or the motion is granted. It is rare that an order to file an opposition would be issued, which would indicate that the plaintiff was given an extraordinary opportunity to file his opposition. That was not done, yet the plaintiff was given additional time in the Show of Cause to file his legal points and authorities in opposition to the motion to disiss.
In this case, a motion to dismiss that is unopposed is granted. End of story. This is not rocket science. Frankly, it looks like legal malpractice.
“Frankly, it looks like legal malpractice.”
ROFLMAO! & who’s gonna file this action, U? I don’t think so.
Apparently it is rocket science; since some things have been removed from the right side since yesterday regarding other things from this case so who knows the truth. I do agree about the affidavit.
