Hmm, I would've prefered to be Rule 56 Summary Judgment -- complicated, but very important -- but 12(b)'s good too.
Which Federal Rule of Civil Procedure Are You?
YOU ARE RULE 12(b)!
While you might be a defendant's best friend, you aren't exactly polite to others. You have seven separate grounds on which to dismiss a plaintiff's case. You are a bit paranoid, since if you fail to raise your 12(b)(2,3,4, or 7) in a motion or a pleading with one of the other 12(b) defenses or a 12(e) motion, you waive those objections for the rest of trial. Some might say that 12(b) is the biggest bully of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, but hey, somebody needs to keep the peace. You might not be the most popular guy in the office, but you're probably the most important.
