How long do you have to wait to reopen a motion after the judgement?
1 Answer from Attorneys
Re: Business Law
I'm not sure what you're asking.
If you're asking how long you have to wait to appeal a judgment (get the judgment reviewed by a higher court), you should appeal as quickly as possible since waiting too long would lose your right to appeal.
If you're asking how long you have to wait to reopen a case in the same court after it has been adjudicated, the answer is generally "forever." In most cases, you can only litigate a matter once.
If you're asking how long you have to wait to get the judge in a case that has not been finally decided to rule again on a motion that s/he has already ruled on in that case, the answer is that, if you disagree with a judge's ruling, you generally must take an appeal to get that ruling changed.
If you're asking something else, please clarify your question by giving us the facts surrounding your question (as the Catapillar said to Alice, "Start at the beginning, continue through until the end, and then stop").
