This is a two part question:
A) What is required in Thurston County District Court to make a pre-hearing motion (i.e. Motion to Dismiss)?
B) Even if advance notice is not required, how do file such a motion? What forms do I use and what supporting documentation should I include? Please assume I know nothing about motions.
Here is what I am trying to accomplish: Make a pre-hearing Motion to Dismiss with Prejudice. The basis for this is the fact that it took 63 days (44 business days) for the Thurston County District Court to send me written notice of the time, place, and date of my contested hearing. Here is the timeline: I received a Notice of Infraction on Day 1 (Sunday). On Day 2 (Monday) I mailed my Request for Hearing (Signed Notice of Infraction). On Day 3 (Tuesday) the county received my Request for Hearing (Verified by County Clerk). On Day 63 (Day 44 by business day) I received my Notice of Hearing (Yellow Slip). Based on IRLJ 2.6 (a) (2), the district county, by rule, was supposed to deliver this Notice of Hearing within 21 days. Furthermore, based on IRLJ 2.6 (a) (4), I can request a dismissal based on a showing of prejudice.
Repealed Requirement?: It looks like Thurston County used to have a rule related to pre-hearing motions, but it appears to be repealed. See LIRLJ 3.1 (e). Rule says adopted on June 26, 2002 and repealed on September 1, 2006.
Miscellaneous Info: I've already submitted and received a discovery request. My Notice of Infraction was filed with the Thurston County District Court within 1 day (well within the 5 days required by IRLJ 2.2 (d)). In addition, I've subpoenaed the officer who issued the Notice of Infraction (15 days before my hearing).
Thanks for your help! My hearing is next week. I have appreciated the existing threads and posts by senior users. I could not find a thread about this specific topic. If I missed one, I apologize for the repost.
