Yes, a defendant in Texas can file a motion to dismiss a case.
To dismiss a civil case when the plaintiff's charges against the defendant are untrue, the defendant can file a motion to dismiss. This motion should detail the reasons why the claims lack merit, often citing insufficient evidence or legal grounds. Additionally, the defendant can gather evidence to support their position, and if appropriate, request a summary judgment, which asserts that there are no genuine disputes of material fact warranting a trial. Ultimately, presenting a strong legal argument can lead to the case being dismissed.

Yes, a defendant can file a request for dismissal of a lis pendens. This legal action is typically initiated through a motion to expunge or dismiss the lis pendens, arguing that the notice is improperly filed or that the underlying lawsuit lacks merit.

My opinion is no. A defendant should file an answer and the motion to dismiss at the same time (if there are grounds to have the matter dismissed, of course). In fact this may even be required in most states. An Answer should be filed even if the reason for the dismissal is lack of jurisdiction over the defendant or subject matter. Sometimes, a defendant who files an Answer is held to have waived any claim of lack of personal jurisdiction. By filing the Answer he/she has just submitted to the jurisdiction of the court. But every Answer can provide that the defendant objects to personal jurisdiction as well as to the merits of the claim and retains the right to request dismissal at a later time. This ensures that the filing of the Answer does not waive the right to object to personal jurisdiction. The motion to dismiss may be filed later. personal jurisdictions ?
A motion to dismiss can be entered any time after indictment or charge, and before disposition is entered at trial. The more critical factor is finding adequate grounds for the dismissal.
