debra thal :

A motion is usually where issues are decided on an interim basis rather than a final basis.

debra thal :

And most of the time the Judge relies on Affidavit evidence rather than live testimony.

debra thal :

There are not witnesses and usually if the parties have lawyers only lawyers attend the motion.
