A quick definition of secondary motion:

A secondary motion is a request made to a court asking for a specific ruling or order. It can be a request to change a previous decision or to clarify an order. There are different types of secondary motions, such as a motion for reduction, motion to modify, or posttrial motion. Some motions can be made without notifying the other party, while others may be contested. A secondary motion is a way for parties to ask the court to take action on a specific issue related to their case.

A more thorough explanation:

A secondary motion is a type of motion made during a court proceeding that is related to the main motion being discussed. It is a request for a specific ruling or order from the court.

Examples of secondary motions include:

  • Calendar motion: A motion related to the time of a court appearance, such as a request to continue or reset a hearing.
  • Cross-motion: A competing request for relief or orders similar to that requested by another party against the cross-moving party.
  • 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.

These examples illustrate how a secondary motion is a specific request made during a court proceeding that is related to the main motion being discussed. They show how a party can make a request for a specific ruling or order from the court that is related to the main issue at hand.
