Relief from Judgment or Order

The court may, upon motion or on its own initiative, relieve a party or a party's legal representative from a judgment or order for the following reasons: (a) Mistake, inadvertence, surprise, or excusable neglect; (b) Newly discovered evidence; (c) Fraud, misrepresentation, or misconduct of an adverse party; (d) The judgment or order is void; Page 11 of 21 February 2024 (e) The judgment or order has been satisfied, released, or discharged, or the judgment or order is no longer equitable that the judgment or order should have prospective application; or (f) Any other reason justifying relief from the operation of the judgment, or order, including that relief is warranted in the interests of justice. The motion shall be made within a reasonable time, and for reasons (a), (b), and (c) not more than one (1) year after the judgment or order was entered. The filing of a motion under this rule does not, in the absence of further action by the court, affect the finality of a judgment or order or suspend its operation.
