A Motion to Dismiss is used to challenge the legal sufficiency of a pleading. It argues that even if the facts alleged in the complaint are true, they do not state a claim upon which relief can be granted. This motion is typically made before the answer is filed and aims to dismiss the case based on legal grounds.

Under ORCP 47, a motion for summary judgment must be filed after the close of discovery but before the trial begins. This motion asserts that there are no genuine disputes of material fact and that the moving party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.
