The AI checks your answers before you download

12 checks built for this form, so a wrong date or a missing answer is caught before anyone else sees it.

Case Number Format and Presence

This check verifies that the 'Case No.' field is not empty and conforms to the standard Michigan court case number format. The case number is the primary identifier for the entire legal proceeding, and an incorrect or missing number would cause the document to be misfiled or rejected by the court clerk. This validation is critical for ensuring the motion is associated with the correct case.

Attorney and Judge Bar Number Format

This validation ensures that all attorney and judge bar numbers start with a 'P' followed by a specific number of digits (e.g., P12345). This format is the standard for the State Bar of Michigan. Validating the format helps ensure the professional listed is correctly identified and is a registered member of the bar, which is essential for legal practice verification.

Future Hearing Date Requirement

This check confirms that the 'notice of hearing date and time' is a date and time in the future. A hearing cannot be scheduled for a past date, so this validation prevents a common and critical data entry error. An invalid date would make the notice legally deficient and require it to be corrected and re-served to all parties.

Mandatory Motion Title

This validation ensures that the 'Motion title' field is filled out. The title provides a concise summary of the motion's purpose for the judge, court staff, and opposing counsel. A missing title would make the document's intent unclear, leading to processing delays or outright rejection by the court.

Moving Party Consistency Check

This check verifies that the 'Moving party' field identifies a party that is listed in the case caption (e.g., 'Plaintiff' or 'Defendant'). This logical check is important to clearly establish who is making the request to the court. An ambiguous or inconsistent moving party could lead to legal confusion and require clarification, delaying the proceedings.

Presence of Primary Parties

This validation confirms that both the plaintiff's and defendant's name and address blocks contain information. A legal motion must clearly identify the opposing parties in the case. Failure to identify both a plaintiff and a defendant would render the motion legally incomplete and cause it to be rejected by the court.

Common Mistakes in Completing MC 326

The ones the AI is built to catch.

Entering Incorrect Court or Case Information
Users often confuse the Judicial Circuit, Judicial District, and County, or they transcribe the Case Number incorrectly from other documents. This happens due to unfamiliarity with legal terminology or simple typos, and can lead to the motion being rejected, misfiled, or significantly delayed. To avoid this, carefully double-check the information against previous court documents and use tools like Instafill.ai, which can help populate correct jurisdictional data based on the case number.
Forgetting the Case Number on Subsequent Pages
The form requires the Case Number to be entered again at the top of page 2, a small field that is very easy to overlook. If the pages get separated, the second page containing the crucial Certificate of Mailing becomes an orphan document, making it impossible to associate with the correct case file. This oversight can invalidate the proof of service, so it's critical to review every field on every page before submission.
Providing Incomplete Party or Attorney Details
Filers frequently omit required details like an attorney's bar number, a full address with a zip code, or a current telephone number for themselves or the opposing party. This often occurs when the information isn't readily available, but failing to provide it can prevent the court and opposing counsel from communicating effectively, leading to delays or missed notices. It's crucial to gather all necessary information before starting the form; AI-powered tools can also help by storing and auto-filling contact details for recurring parties, ensuring consistency.
Using a Vague or Improper Motion Title
The 'Motion title' field requires a specific and legally accurate description of the relief being sought (e.g., 'Motion to Compel Discovery' instead of just 'Motion'). Self-represented litigants, in particular, may use generic language, which confuses the court and the opposing party about the motion's purpose. This can result in the hearing being adjourned or the motion being denied for lack of clarity, so always use the precise legal title for the motion you are filing.
Specifying a Hearing Date Without Court Confirmation
A critical error is for a party to unilaterally fill in a date and time for the hearing without first contacting the judge's clerk to schedule it. Courts have specific procedures for scheduling motions, and an unconfirmed date will be ignored, meaning the motion will not be heard and the notice is invalid. This wastes time and filing fees, so always contact the court clerk or follow local court rules to obtain a valid hearing date before completing this section.
Missing Signature or Date on the Motion
Forgetting to sign and date the motion in the designated signature block is a frequent and fatal oversight. An unsigned motion is legally invalid and will be rejected by the court clerk or disregarded by the judge, as the signature certifies the filer's belief in the motion's merits. This simple mistake nullifies the entire filing, forcing the filer to start the process over, so always perform a final review to check for signatures.
Neglecting the Certificate of Mailing
The Certificate of Mailing on page 2 is a sworn statement that you have legally notified the other parties, not just a formality. Many filers either forget to fill it out, fail to sign it, or sign it before actually mailing the documents. An incomplete or improperly executed certificate can lead to the motion being dismissed for improper service, as there is no proof the opposing party was notified.
Incorrectly Identifying the Case Style
The form provides fields for both 'Plaintiff v Defendant' and 'In the matter of,' and filers often get confused about which to use. 'In the matter of' is typically used for cases without traditional opposing parties, such as probate or adoptions. Using the wrong format can cause confusion and processing delays in the clerk's office, so it's important to identify the correct case caption from previous filings and use it consistently.
Assuming the Form is Fillable and Using Illegible Handwriting
Many court forms are distributed as flat, non-fillable PDFs, leading to submissions with illegible handwriting that can cause critical data entry errors by court clerks. Poor handwriting in fields like case numbers or names can cause a filing to be rejected outright or lead to misdirected mail. To avoid this, use a tool like Instafill.ai that can convert non-fillable PDFs into interactive, fillable forms, ensuring all entries are clear, legible, and properly formatted.
