RE: Understanding Civil Lawsuits in the U.S., a Steemit Exclusive
Thank you for the feedback. I'm thrilled you actually read the whole article! Re: Metadata, I don't have a clue. I know they are still teaching that in legal training seminars, though. Presumably, the tech guys at companies law firms know more than the attorneys do -- I hope! Re: dismissals. Yes, "with prejudice" means cannot refile. I appreciate you catching that mistake/inconsistency and I will fix it in the article shortly.
Hello Richard Kaplan - I have been educating myself about Civil Lawsuits.
In your document I read all 27 pages on the subject and it contained this paragraph -
When a case is dismissed, the dismissal can be made either with Hello Al - Since we last met and spoke in the lobby of your office building, I have been educating myself about Civil Lawsuits.
In one of the documents I read (27 pages) on the subject it contained this paragraph -
under the area referring to (Demurrers)
"When a case is dismissed, the dismissal can be made either with prejudice or without prejudice. When a case is dismissed without prejudice, this gives the plaintiff an opportunity to correct some error and then file the case again. Dismissal without prejudice is a final order from the court that ends the lawsuit. This means that the same case cannot be filed again. A plaintiff whose case is dismissed with prejudice can appeal this decision.
I believe it to be in error in its defining of cases dismissed with prejudice and without prejudice.
This sentence, which reads: “Dismissal without prejudice is a final order from the court that ends the lawsuit.”
Should read: “Dismissal with prejudice is a final order from he court that ends the lawsuit.”
Am I correct? Please confirm
