It is common to speak of an entire species of bacteria as pathogenic when it is identified as the cause of a disease (cf. Koch's postulates). However, the modern view is that pathogenicity depends on the microbial ecosystem as a whole.
If someone files a motion before the date an answer to a complaint is due, the timeline to respond to the motion is: 10 days from the date of service of the motion, OR. the date the defendantâs answer is due (20 days from the date the complaint was served), whichever is later.
For a motion to strike a complaint this time period is 30 days unless you obtain an agreement to extend from opposing counsel. (C.C.P. ? 435(b)). Therefore, if you are bringing a motion to strike a complaint, it must be brought when your answer would otherwise be due.
