V § 3 Motion to Dismiss
Part A: Practice and Procedure | Rule V: Motions
Rule Text
A motion to dismiss proceedings shall be submitted to this Court without oral arguments. The mover to dismiss may file a brief with the motion, and the opponent(s) may file an opposing brief, unless the motion to dismiss is fixed for oral arguments or referred to on the merits.
In the absence of a timely answer to an appeal or other formal action by an opponent to amend or modify a judgment of which review is sought, the appellant, applicant, or relator alone may file a motion to dismiss the case from this Court’s review.
