Texas Rule 91a Motion to Dismiss

File within 60 days after the first pleading containing the challenged cause of action is served on the movant. The court must rule within 45 days after the motion is filed, unless the responding party amends the challenged pleading at least 3 days before the hearing, in which case the movant may withdraw or amend the motion. Costs and reasonable attorney's fees are recoverable by the prevailing party under Rule 91a.7, subject to the court's discretion. Pleadings in family law cases by self-represented parties are exempt under Rule 91a.1. Verify the rule has not been amended since this form's last update by checking the Texas Supreme Court's published amendments before filing.
