Motion to Reconsider

A Motion to Reconsider is a formal request made to a court asking it to review and potentially change a previous decision. It is typically filed if a party believes the court overlooked important facts, made an error, or if circumstances have changed. This motion prompts the court to revisit its earlier ruling without starting a new case. It must be filed within a specified time frame and often depends on a legal justification. Essentially, it provides an opportunity to ask the court to re-examine a decision, hoping for a different outcome.
