pending motion

Read a random definition: Paraphrase of Theophilus

A quick definition of pending motion:

A pending motion is a request made to a court for a specific ruling or order. It can be written or spoken, and there are different types of motions depending on the situation. Some motions are routine and can be granted easily, while others may be contested or require more investigation. A motion can be made by one party or in response to another party's request. A pending motion means that the court has not yet made a decision on the request and is still considering it.

A more thorough explanation:

A pending motion is a request made to a court, either in writing or orally, asking for a specific ruling or order. It is a motion that has been filed but has not yet been decided upon by the court.

  • Calendar Motion: A motion related to the time of a court appearance, such as a motion to continue, advance, or reset.
  • Motion to Modify: A post-final-decree motion asking the court to change one of its earlier orders, such as a request to change child support or visitation.
  • Omnibus Motion: A motion that makes several requests or asks for multiple forms of relief.

These examples illustrate how a pending motion can be used in different legal situations, such as family law or civil procedure. They show that a pending motion is a request that has been made to the court but has not yet been decided upon.

Sent in my transcript at 6 am today and it’s processing. Think it will be processed before lsac closes tmrw?

I would say it is a toss up, for how much LSAC charges us for everything they are extremely efficient in processing and sending stuff out BUT with a 30% uptake in applicants and the holidays it may be significantly slower unless it is ran through and processed by a computer program. Even if it takes them longer to process it, not like there is anyone at a school to request and review it after LSAC does their thing
Do we know if any of the t14 open at all this week
just called Fordham. they said there will be decisions going out today
so congratulations on pre xmas waves
