Welcome back to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast! Today, as part of our "Listen and Learn" series, we're discussing the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, and specifically Rule 12(b), which governs defenses and motions to dismiss, and is frequently tested on the bar exam.

In this episode, we discuss:

Motions to dismiss based on the defenses enumerated in Rule 12(b)
The requirements for an adequate pleading
How a court will evaluate a claim to grant relief
Two sample questions illustrating motions to dismiss a case
