Personal Injury Motions
What is a Motion In Limine?
A motion in limine (a motion ``on or at the threshold'') is a motion that requests the court, in advance of a proceeding, to make an order determining questions of procedure or evidence or restricting conduct of the participants. The motion is used primarily to preclude parties, their counsel, and witnesses from communicating or disclosing to jurors or prospective jurors irrelevant or otherwise inadmissible matters that are so prejudicial or confusing that their effect cannot be nullified by a subsequent admonition or direction from the court.
