If say, your creditor's attorney failed abide with certain court rule, what happens? What step should you take to let the credit card lawsuit progress? The next step is to file Motion to dismiss the case the creditor for not abiding by court rules.

When involved in a credit card lawsuit and you file the motion for case dismissal against the creditor for failure to abide with a court rule note that plaintiff is given at least thirty (30) days to modify the first filed complaint in order to abide by the court rule with the said rule they failed to comply with. Filing a motion to dismiss a case is not readily granted unless the court sees enough reason to grant the motion. So don’t expect the case to easily be dismissed with prejudice because regardless, creditors are given time to modify the complaint.

Dismissal without prejudice refers to the fact that creditors can sue you for the same credit card issue again. To do this, creditors just need to amend the complaint to abide by court rules and the credit card lawsuit will proceed. On the other hand, prejudice means your credit can no longer press charges for the same debt. Basically, when a case is dismissed with prejudice, the court battle is OVER, you WON the case and your creditor CANNOT file a credit card lawsuit for the same debt ever again.

Here’s a better motion. You can ask the court to make the plaintiff to abide by the court rule by modifying the filed complaints within the 30 day period and if they failed to comply, ask for case dismissal with prejudice.This strategy will give the plaintiff 34 days to amend the complaint and comply with court rules, which they have the right to anyway, and WIN your case if they don’t comply. This will force the creditor to comply otherwise, they are done for.

The bottom line is, if you ask for dismissal without prejudice, what’s stopping your creditor from re-filing the credit card lawsuit? This is just one of the many important things you need to consider when you face a credit card lawsuit.
