What “Motions And Pre-Trial Hearings” Means
Motions are formal requests for court rulings — to compel discovery, exclude evidence, or decide issues before trial (summary judgment). Pre-trial hearings are the court sessions resolving them, shaping what a jury will ultimately see and decide.
Why It Matters in Your Texas Case
Motion practice is quiet leverage. A motion to compel pries loose the records a defendant “couldn’t find”; defeating a defense summary judgment motion confirms the case reaches a jury; evidentiary rulings can strip the defense of its favorite arguments. McKay Law fights these paper battles aggressively because each ruling moves settlement value — a defendant whose motions fail is a defendant recalculating trial risk in your favor.
