  1. judgment on the pleadings

    A judgment on the pleadings is a decision made by a judge based solely on the information contained in the legal pleadings filed by the parties, without consideration of any other evidence such as witness testimonies or exhibits. This type of judgment typically occurs when one party believes that even if all the facts presented by the other party are true, they still do not constitute a legally valid claim or defense. It usually takes place after the pleadings are closed but early in the legal proceedings before a trial or discovery process.
