What is a motion to dismiss an arbitration?

A motion to dismiss an arbitration is a legal request to end a case without a trial. In Kansas, a motion to dismiss an arbitration is often used in cases involving arbitration law. According to Kansas arbitration law, a motion to dismiss an arbitration can be made if there is a lack of jurisdiction or if the case fails to present a genuine dispute for arbitration. When a motion to dismiss an arbitration is filed, the moving party must provide a legal basis for the request. The opposing party has the opportunity to respond in writing with its own argument as to why the motion should be denied. The court will consider both parties’ arguments and decide whether or not the motion to dismiss should be granted. If the motion is granted, the case will be dismissed immediately and the parties will not be able to proceed with the arbitration. However, the court will usually not grant a motion to dismiss an arbitration unless the moving party can prove that the dispute cannot be appropriately addressed through arbitration. Otherwise, the court may deny the motion and require the parties to proceed with a trial.
